Day 96 & 97- Salta

We only went through the top corner of Argentina, but we still got a flavour of it. The flavour is beef. Steaks bigger than your hand for £2.

Away from the city the scenery is spectacular, but Salta was like any big city.

Everything is even cheaper than Chile.

Argentina is politically unstable so we weren't surprised to find a military uprising* in the city centre. Of course I took the opportunity to get invoved and complete another of my tasks.

*Our spanish isn't perfect yet, so it was only later we discovered it was teachers marching for extra pay...

In the evening we ended up in a nightclub. The DJ pretended he hadn't heard of Chesney Hawkes and threatened to call the bouncers if I didn't stop asking...

Day 98 - Humahuaca

A pleasant little town in the mountains at 3200m. Not the ideal place to play football for the first time in 8 years. We lost 6-0.

As a professional goalhanger, I had a couple of shots on goal, but the closest hit the corner flag...

Next country - Bolivia
