La Falda, Cordoba

We went to La Falda for 5 days.
We caught a bus at 9pm and arrived at 8am, the seats went right back and we slept most of the way.
We stayed in a lovely hotel with a pool called Residencial Old Garden.
Oliver and Lucia shared one bedroom and my mum and I slept in a bedroom with a connecting door.

Last time we went to La Falda it was during the summer holidays so there were lots of people everywhere. This time there were just the people that lived there.

We went to Neverland everyday and collected coupons to pick prizes on the last day.
For Halloween Lucia bought me a witches hat and broomstick so we could get extra fichas (tokens).

When we were there we went on a tour of this very old hotel called Hotel Eden and it was so big.
You could get every meal there, from their own vegetable patch and their own animal farm with chickens and cows. It was the first building in La Falda but it is a museum now.

Don Bosco Argicultural School

Today we went to visit my cousin Lucia´s school.

They had lots of animals and also they made cheese, jam, Dulce De leche (caramel spread but better).

It took us a long time too get there because it was in the country.

It was like a farm we saw pigs, cows, goats and many more animals.

They also had a workshop to fix tractors, a shed to make animal feed, a place to fix furniture and another to store vehicles.

One of the workmen found some screaming hairy armadillos in the paddock and had them in a box. Armadillos have a hard shell on their back and a snout like an echidna. They are native to this area.

We bought some cheese, jams and dulce de leche to have at home. Yum!

Parque De La Costa

Yesterday we went to Parque de La Costa!
This is an amusement park on the river El Tigre, Buenos Aires.
We went with there with Rodrigo and Francisco who are two of our cousins.

First we caught a train to Constitucion, then the subway to Retiro, another train to Mitre and THEN the Tren de La Costa to Delta.

It was a very long trip but it paid off because it had 3 ROLLER COASTERS,1TOBOGGAN and ROCK CLIMBING but there is so much that I can not tell you every thing and at night we saw a WATER SHOW and it was so spectacular then we went on all the transport again.

Last we dropped off Francisco and Rodrigo home.

I HAD A VERY GREAT DAY.

Catching Up

We have been very busy this week and these are the thing we have been doing.

The baboon was very funny to watch it eat.You could buy buckets of food for some animals.

We also went to Valeria´s party and Sussy's birthday party . Sussy's party was at my cousin Robert's house. These were the photos I took.

In Buenos Aires City

In the city we went a science museum.

You could touch everything.

We saw lots of interesting things there like how musical instruments work, how pulleys and ropes work and tornados.

We had pizza for lunch.

Last of all we had yummy ice cream from a shop called Freddo. I had limon y frutilla which is lemon and strawberry.

At the house

When we got to the house we had a yummy afternoon tea.

There were lots of pastries (called facturas in Spanish) and we had tea then I took lots of photos and played with my cousins. They took photos of me and I took photos of them.

We didn't go to bed till 1 O'clock in the morning!

On the aeroplane!

On the aeroplane.

It took lots of time to get here but it was a little bit fun because I got to take photos for a while.

I played with my presents and read 2 books.

We had a snack, some dinner and then breakfast.

They were very yummy meals.

I also played with my Nintendo.
