Our farewell party

 This night we celebrate a big farewell party!
Our host family cooked some tipical Argentine delectability! 
for example some traditional Empanada. That was some kind of hearty pies.
Than we helped to cook a yummy Locro!
Locro is a popular hearty thick stew.

We want to say thank you to all of our new Argentine friends! It was a honor for us to be a part of your life!

Clubbing in Córdoba

 We went out clubbing! We found a nice bar in Córdoba with live music!
Then we drank the probably most southern beer in the world! Wow! We got very quickly drunken. But it tasted delicious!

Sight-seeing in Córdoba

Today we did a walk on the streets of Córdoba.
 Have a look! We met the Holy Father! Ok, not the real one... But him as a cardboard cut-out!
 Córdoba has many historical monuments left over from the colonial era. In the centre, near the Plaza San Martín square, is the Jesuit Cathedral, whose altar is made of stone and silver from Potosí. Every ornament inside is made of gold and the roof is all painted with different images from the Bible. Another important historic building is the Cabildo (colonial government house), located next to the church. The Jesuit Block, the Monserrat School, the University and the church of the Society of Jesus are also located in Córdoba.
 The city was declared in 2000 as UNESCO World Heritage!
At the moment we are traveling with Michaela from Uetze (Germany). But this days we are guests of Giuli and her family!.
 Here we are with Giuli and her mother! They are so nice to us!
 Here is a photo of the base of the monument.
 Córdoba is full of historical monuments.
 
 Here we are at the Plaza San Martín in the middle of Córdoba. Behinde us is the cathedral of the city.
 
Her we are in front of the Church Sagrado Corazón. The oldest in Argentina.

Flight to Cordoba

Today we flew from Buenos Aires to Cordoba.
This was our little blue airplane. Just as blue as the flag of Argentina ...
It took a bit time to departure because the police removed a troublemaker.
We were so lucky because our luggage came first!
In Cordoba we drank our first maté! Maté is absolutly the main drink in Argentina!
