Photo Tag

The tag: post the sixth photo from your sixth photo file and blog about it. And then tag six others!

So this is a photo from our trip to Cordoba, Argentina over a year ago. We were living in Buenos Aires and would explore the country by bus whenever we could. This particular trip we took the red-eye bus there and back to avoid the extra cost of a hotel. It was a spontaneous trip, we packed Luke's backpack and took off.

We arrived early that morning in the city of Cordoba, second largest in Argentina, and found a place that while not serving breakfast yet still had medialunas dulce (sweet croissants) and juice for us. After that we explored the city seeing all the old churches and monestaries---it is a beautiful city!

For lunch we took another bus up into the hills so that we could see some of the smaller towns. Cordoba is in a foothill region that reminded me alot of Sonora, CA where I grew up. It was so nice to get out of Buenos Aires----to fresh breezes, green grass, to a place more rural. The town we went to wasn't that far away, but it took us three hours to get there because the bus literally stopped at every person's house to let them off--even if it was just 20 feet from the last stop. But we finally got there, walked around the few houses, found a place to eat, and caught the next bus.

Back in the city we walked around some shops, found a delicious place to have dinner, and then jumped on the bus back to BA and got arrived home the next morning.

It was a wonderful, spur-of-the-moment trip that we'll always remember!

So now I tag: Megan, Alli, Whitney, JP, Lee, and Lissy.
