Puerto Iguazu to Posadas via San Ignacio

San Ignacio was a 4 hour bus ride away from Puerto Iguazu. The scenery was unchanging in its verdant leafyness, not that we noticed much anyway as the bus had onboard entertainment. We watched 'The Punisher' and 'American Pie: The Wedding'. Why?!


San Ignacio's Jesuit Ruins are merely 300 years old, quite old for Argentina. The town was one of the one horse variety, where there was very little to do other than see the ruins, the local museum/art gallery (with 3 paintings) and walk a mile or so along a red mud track, I mean road, to Horacio Quiroga's house (an adored Argentine author). We quite enjoyed the latter for its quaintness.


Dinner was less than interesting. My Ravioli was more like glue. I think it maust have been boiling since about noon and we ate at 8pm. Robin had some battered and fried meat.

Now we are in Posadas. Not much to do here. Thought we might go to the 'Serpentarium,' but that is now a school. Been on the web twice today, which says a lot about this town. We are leaving on the nightbus tonight, for Rosario. I wonder what the film will be?
