When we got to Bahia Blanca yesterday it was still 115 degrees like it had been in Buenos Aires. There is not really alot do here. The town has about 300,000 people in it and is more or less an average middle class city. Jim and I were pretty bored and mostly just sat around, checked email, and attempted to play cards. This morning started off well with the hotel lady calling us at 9:30 and yelling at us in spanish. We took this as a sign that we should probably check out. The morning was a fun treasure hunt for pancakes. Jim kept calling them pancaques which i thought was a word he invented. I found out that really was the word for pancakes when were served some in a cafe. I think there was something wierd about ordering them becuase everyone kept laughing at us. We spent the morning just wandering around town which is way nicer than it usually is becuase its about 30 degrees cooler today. The highlight of the morning was finding this monster dog in a park. The owner was nice enough to let me take a photo with it.
The photo does not do it justice. We thought it was some kind of wild boar from across the street. I think this dog might have been ¨beast¨from the movie sandlot. Im not sure though becuase my spanish wasnt good enought to ask the owner. We are hoping a 14 hour bus tonight which is alot more exciting than i thought it would be. The buses are super nice and you get to watch movies the whole time. We are heading out to bariloche which is a mountain town on the Argentinian side of the Andes. Hopefully we will be able to do some camping there and see some cool stuff.
