Hey guys, bear with us with this one! In the last few places we´ve stayed the internet has been at pretty much dial up speed. So this is quite a long post and its taken a fecking age to get up, with much tantrums and cursing. As we have what feels like a million photos to get on the blog we're going to keep the informed chat clean and simple. The pictures are from time spent in and around Cordoba, Salta in Northern Argentina and towards the border into Bolivia.

The hostel guys told us about this great pretty river with lovely beaches and swimming holes not so far from where we were staying. Diego told us we could even drink the water (no thanks mate), although Ian drank a lot from nearly drowning as apparently he can´t swim when he laughs, a dangerous combination with ems water banter...

So we waved goodbye to Argentina and crossed the border with Kathleen who we met in Humauaca. We then met Ben and Charlie on the bus to the border, they were laughing at us trying to move an Argentinian hippy with a guitar out of our seat. Afterwards Ben said ´yeah you could tell Emma was laid back and Ian was stubborn´ as he refused to give up the seats. So onto Bolivia we all travelled into Tupiza to brace ourselves for the Salt Flats, the first experience of Bolivia was hanging around a half built bus terminal for our first bolivian bus which turned up an hour and half late, had an engine which sounded like a small moped and a driver who couldn´t find the biting point (Al?)...Ian got sunstoke...again.

Next time on Wraggy and Hunters increasingly numerous photos of buildings and landscapes....the Salt Flats (with much better photos), four days of sweating, listening to James Blunt, rounded off with a big salty finish! Just a typical weekend then. Adios amigos...
