Argentina – A quick stop in Tucuman..!

We ended up taking Mateo with us to Jujuy.  He was super excited because he wanted to be there for his cousin’s birthday and the opportunity to meet his new cousin (Natalia’s baby).  Adriana picked us up in the morning and brought us to the bus station.

On the way up to Jujuy we made a stop in Tucuman to visit with Laura.  For the first couple hours we let him borrow Matthew’s tablet to watch cartoons while we were able to catch up with Laura on life in Argentina and her future ministry plans for the year.  While we visited we ate pastries and drank some tea.

Watching cartoons... so we could talk in English..!


After a couple hours she made us lunch and then we all went out for ice cream.  It was a special treat for Mateo so he enjoyed it even though he was stuck with three adults who spoke English half the time.  We then went back to Laura’s and played some games while we continued to visit.

That evening we headed back to the bus station to continue our trip up to Jujuy.   The bus getting to Tucuman was luxurious in comparison to the bus that brought us the rest of the way.  Not only was it over an hour late it stopped at all the little villages along the way where people would get off and take forever.  We ended up arriving in Jujuy over two hours later than expected and starving.
