First time Visiting Argentina

| I recently visited Argentina for the first time. It was also my first time in any country in South America. I was in Buenos Aires for 3 days and Ushuaia for 3. I had to spend another night in Buenos Aires on my return back to the US which didn't invlove much other than getting dinner and reorganizing my bags for my return journey. I definitely enjoyed Ushuaia more than Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires was nice, but seemed like a better place to live rather than visit as a tourist, if that makes any sense. I got a similar feeling from Brussels. With that being said, I would probably visit Argentina again, especially the Patagonia region. Everyone was pretty nice, and especially accommodating to my lack of Spanish. The food I ate was pretty good, I had plenty of empanadas and medialunas, but I did get diarrhea from at least 1 dish I ate which required me to get the Argentinian version of Immodium. Pictures in order are: 1) Recoleta Cemetery 2) My breakfast from a great cafe 3) An intersection near Casa Rosada that encompasses most of the architecture in the city 4) Casa Rosada 5) McDonald's; I always visit one when I go to a new country 6) Some of the animals that roam around the Ecoparque 7) Obelisk Monument 8) Teatro Colon Opera House 9) Approach into Ushuaia 10) Ave San Martin in Ushuaia 11) End of the World sign 12) Boat tour of Beagle Channel got close to an island w/ birds and seals 13) The famous lighthouse in the Beagel Channel 14) The boat tour stopped on an isle for a short hike 15) I ate lots of empanadas 16) Alakush Visitors Center in Tierra Del Fuego National Park 17) Lago Roca beach/trailhead 18) Rio Lapataia in Tierra Del Fuego National Park 19) Martial Galcier - I didn't get to finish due to time constraints [link] [comments] |
