Argentina (2 of 2)

CORDOBA and La FALDA


CORDOBA

After Buenos Aires juan, idan, eyal, and myself went to Cordoba then La Falda. Cordoba seemed to be a place with lots of students, tons of young people. The main thing I liked about Cordoba was that the girls were fucking incredible. Too bad they dont give you the time of day. Approaching them usually results in some type of nasty look.


If you know anything about Argentina, you know Diego Maradona. He is a god there. Luckily hes not dead, he looked as if he was about to die a few years ago when his terrible coke addiction caused him health problems and he ballooned in size. He sobered up, got his stomach stapled, then he got a talk show. Now it looks as if hes back on the coke......he is on the news every day, "DIEGO GOES TO THE SUPERMARKET," or "MARADONA WALKS DOG."

I had no idea what was going on when i saw this happening. Kids walking around and getting garbage thrown on them, wine poured on them, eggs smashed on their head. I was laughing pretty hard though...

Turns out its a graduation ritual. Pretty Weird.

The partying in cordoba was great. The hostel we stayed in (Cordoba Backpackers) was perfect for pre partying. Power Hour obviously. The bad part was by the time you got back to the hostel at around 9am the rooms were sweltering hot.

The clubs in cordoba were amazing. You had to take a taxi 30 min outside of town to reach these superclubs.....they held thousands of people. Couldnt be luckier, the first one we get to has a fashion show. Wow or as borat would say wow-wow-wee-wow.....

Hard to explain, but in the club they had this crazy light contraption. It was a single vertical line of blue dots on the wall about 2-3 feet tall. When you look at it everything is normal, but if you shake your head really fast you can see a camel. Supposedly camel cigs pays to put that in the clubs there. I played with my camera a little and was able to capture it.

The Bus system in Argentina is crazy....everybody takes busses everywhere...so there are all types of busses from crappy to hardcore VIP...one bus we took had giant leather fully reclining seats...check out the bus station on a pretty busy day (week of christmas)

La Falda

We headed to the small town of La Falda, about 2 hours outside of Cordoba, for a few chill days in a cabin on a mountain. Really beautiful place. Great time....we cooked a lot...smoked a lot...watched tv....basically did nothing in our awesome cabin.
