Cordoba

We didnt want to leave BA but as we were returning for Christmas it wasnt a final farewell. Next stop - Cordoba. We found a new hostel which was pretty empty so ended up with a 6 person dorm to ourselves!

Hopped on a bus to Jesus Maria to see the Jesuit Misson. Didnt see any Jesuits which was disappointing, but did see what their toilets used to look like, very interesting. Then got another bus to Alta Gracia to go to Che Guevara`s childhood home - nice little video and explanations in English made it a very insightful visit. Also saw Che´s loo.

Day 2 in Cordoba we actually spent in the city visiting the sights and sampling the food. Found a great little restaurant which sold amazing Tartas (bit like quiche) the onion and cheese one was delicious and so were the two bottles of red wine! Also discovered that sandwiches are pretty big in Argentia, or I should say small! Nearly every corner shop sells Triples - very thinly sliced bread with the crusts cut off and filled with thin slices of ham, cheese, sometimes tuna and other stuff. Not very filling but quite tasty!

Huge Christ. They are very religious in and around Cordoba
