Back from Buenos Aires
By Bob Giangrasso, traveler
When I was a kid, I curiously enjoyed playing one of my Mom’s old 78 rpm recordings over and over again, surely endearing myself to the neighbors. The black and white Decca label identified the tango as La Compasita with music by Xavier Cugat and his orchestra. I found the music haunting; the sort that stays with you all day.
Never did I think I would hear this stirring and emblematic rhythm repeatedly until our recent vacation to Buenos Aires, which first piqued our curiosity when friends described this destination as the Paris of South America.
Possibly because of our share of airline tribulations, we were somewhat wary in the beginning. Need I bring up our Alitalia debacle again?

Visiting Argentina: Iguassu Falls, Canela & Gramada, Porto Alegre and Sao Paulo
By Mike Shaughnessy, traveler
Turns out BOTH Thursday and Friday were holidays here in Latin America (Easter) plus Monday is a political holiday so it is a long 5 day weekend for locals. All of Buenos Aires was at the airport at 6:30 am with me, including the local TV stations that were broadcasting the mass of humanity in long lines trying to get out of town on holiday.
I flew from Buenos Aires city airport up to Puerto Iguazu airport, the Argentine side of the falls. Iguassu Falls borders on three countries...Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil...so there are three different spellings for this huge natural attraction.
I was met by a local guide, Lucas, he transferred me to the Panorama Inn hotel in Ciudad del Este, Paraguay. On our way there we crossed the international Tancredo Neves Bridge over the Iguazu River. This is the border between Argentina and Brazil. We made a short stop there to enjoy the wonderful view and take some photos.
I arrived from Cordoba, Argentina via 10 hour bus to Buenos Aires safely but a bit tired, a nice shower helped me to feel much better. I went to the CitiBank Gold office here on Florida Street...when I went in they said...yes your new ATM card arrived yesterday via DHL...would you like some coffee while I go get it for you...nice service. Then they called New York and activated it and let me use their computer to link it to my online banking so that I can once again see my accounts online. I went right to the ATM and it worked perfectly right away, so back to normal.
Last night I had one of those huge Argentinean beef steaks, grilled to perfection. Good beef is plentiful here and inexpensive, they are famous for it. Argentina is a horrible country in which to be a vegetarian...I think you would starve. Buenos Aires (good air) is one of the world’s largest cities, I think around the 15th largest in the world. It is a very modern city with some old buildings that look like palaces from France. This city is frequently referred to as the Paris of South America.
Yesterday the city closed the 12 lane wide Avenue 9 July and put up a huge temporary stage in the middle of the big street. There was appearing last evening a TV evangelist minister from the USA, Luis Paulo or something like that, anyway I had never heard of him. It was being live telecast on all the local TV stations here and many thousands packed the street for the free music concert. I left before the minister took the stage but the crowd was packed and rocking to the loud live singing groups prior to his arrival.
