Hello Hello,
Well today i spent most of the day roaming around the city, I am still looking for an apartment downtown somewhere. I have a bunch more places to see tomorrow then im making a decision. But in my free time today I mapped out four trips around Argentina. First the Northeast, then Northwest, then central and lake towns, then South. So in two weeks i am going to embark on a trip to the Northeast, and see everything there is to see, in addition, make a stop in Paraguay to see an old friend from Lynn, Boca Raton, Florida.
SO here is my basic trip plan, but i still have a lot of work to do on it.
First leave BA and head to Rosario while making a pit stops in Tigre and San Antonio de Areco. Once I make it to Rosario I will stay there a day or two, there are a lot of college students, so it should be a fun place to meet people and go out at night. And there are many museums and shows to see. Then, on my way to Santa Fe, stop in Parana. Then on to Corrientes, and Resistencia for a day. Then to the main destination PUERTO IQUAZU!!
There I will get a Brazilian visa and travel to Brazil, Paraguay and the Argentine side of the falls. This is supposed to be one of the most spectacular things you will ever see in your life. I will take a boat under the falls on the Argentine side and rappel over the falls. Then roam around Parque Das Aves in Paraguay, where over 800 species of birds have been found. While im in Paraguay i will go to the Itaipu Dam, which is the largest hydroelectric dam in the world and go to Ciudad Del Diablo. Then go to Brazil and raft the river and see Prudentopolis. I will stay in these areas for about 3 days.
Then make my way back. A bus from there to BA is 20 hrs. I am going to make many stops along the way in reserva Natural Provincial Librea, Mercedes, Paso de Los Libres, Parque Nacional EL Palmar, and finally Gualeguaychu.
it will take me 3-4 days to reach the falls, I will stay at the falls 3 days, then take 2 days to get back. Im still planing it, so there will be many updates... dont worry...you know my plan is always changing : )
