Day Six: Ju-Juy

I think that is the spelling but I am not sure. Anyway we are in a town in the very north of Argentina. This will be our last stop before we head to Bolivia but before that where have we been since I last wrote.

So we visited the Iguazu falls. They were absolutely incredible. Really undescribable so I won´t bother. Lots of photos but as usual of things of a grand nature they don´t really capture it. We were going to spend the night at the Sheraton for my birthday but we decided not to. It was a bit grose, totally overpriced and and we were finished at about 3pm (we have been getting started so early) so we thought that we should move on. I am keen to have plenty of time in Peru.

So we moved on to San Ignacio. We got there at like 11pm at night and it was absolutely freezing and we had to wonder around town looking for a place to stay. Thankfully we did without too much trouble but it was a little unnerving. The next morning we spent checking out the Jesuit missions which were pretty cool and very old (they were built in 1620) in temperature of about 0.

We then hopped on another bus for about 20 hours until we arrived here in Ju-Juy. Ju-Juy has been great for the couple of hours that we´ve been here. I had not heard anything about before and was expecting to pass though pretty quickly but I have changed my mind. I think when you are not expecting anything and then it turns out to be great you appreciate it even more.

So we have checked ourselves into a nice hotel hidden in some mountains and are really enjoying not been in a bus. We have done some exercise and had ourselves a themal bath in the water from the mountains and are now sitting watching the sun go down over the hills. Tonight we will celebrate my birthday with some wine and a nice meal so I better go but will hopefully write soon.
