Back together in Argentina (the upper part of it) Day 1 - Flight

as some of you know, lennie came back, and we took a trip to the north of Argentina, to Salta, from there we took trips to know the place, Jujuy, and even Bolivia, all that will come in future posts, so be patient, there are lots of pictures to go through (4000) so itll take some time...
right know she's in Bolivia doing her research for her Master
so ill be doing the blogging for now (gonzalo) :P

so...lets get started
lennie got reunited with her beloved caƱoncitos :D
thats still here in la plata, the morning before the flight

before going on a trip its a must to have something to eat, so i did some sandwiches
so here is a step by step on them (i was just happy to use her new lens, mine is pretty old and used)
yummy, right?

after that we went to the airport, we got there early so not to have chances to miss it ;) (we have some history with that...)
so while waiting we got a little thirsty (im sure she's laughing right now, knowing that im going to tell this story)
i went to the food court to get something to drink, i approached one that gave you a glass of coke if you baught a special combo...
i asked the lady if i could buy the glass alone...she asked in the office...came back and told me "yes" so she filled it up and gave it to me, i tried to pay for it, but she told me "nah...take it, go"
so i ran away to where we were with a huge smile :D
and here it is!

whe also were a little hungry, but the sandwiches where in the bag that went to the plane...so we had some pringles

she faked that she was taking my picture...

so happy with my free glass :D
and that new lens is great!!

talking with my grandmother...

she used it during almost all the trip, shes very happy with it :)

there were lots of free chairs...but maybe the floor was chillier...it was a hot day

she had to study a little, so we did that a little while, i helped her with some translations, and finished it on the plane

in the bathroom, washing the glass

just in case...its good to know

on a little truck going to the plane

getting up in the plane

we were almost in the back row, with a wall in fron of us, and the turbine on our side...but we took some nice pictures of the view

not that one :P

that one, beautiful clouds

and the city's overview

we have videos of the trip too, its nice to see things move sometimes ;P

there we are with the plane on the back, thats when we got off of it

waiting for the luggage, we were the last ones

we finally we got to the hotel, nice place, but the walls were a little thin....
and we had the room that was in the middle of the upper hall, right in front of the stairs, so we heard every step that happened in the wooden stair....

this was taken on the last day, so it wasn't as tidy as the first day

it was a nice place....compared to the other places we saw :P

so thats it for the first day, the flight day
next will come the trip to Cafayate, a wine making region, famous for the "torrontes" variety (white)
hope you enjoy it, next blogs will be landscapey

groetjes, greetings, saludos
gonzalo
