I´m blogging before heading out to see what the Peruvian capital has to offer on a Saturday night. I´ve got a day and a half here before an early morning flight to Buenos Aires. I´m planning to blitz the northern half of Argentina in around three weeks - going from BA, as the Yanks call it, to Mendoza, hitting a few towns on the way to Salta, then looping round to Iguazu and the falls, before going back to BA.
I had intended to ignore my flight from BA to Sao Paulo and travel overland but, amazingly, the airlines would either charge me $120, or cancel my remaining flights. Surely these are my flights and it is up to me what I do with them - apparently not.
I don´t have a definite plan for Brazil yet, but seeing as I fly into Sao Paulo and out of Rio, it is likely to be concentrated in that south-east corner. (How many times have I said this but I would like to come back and do South America properly (or southern India, Laos, big chunks of China and Japan, Australia´s Great Barrier Reef and Ayres Rock). One of the things about travelling is that whenever you leave a place there are always places you wished you´d seen, and some you´d like to see again.
Northern America could turn into little more than a stopover, so I could be back in Blighty in less than two months, but don´t start planning the welcome home party just yet!
