We had a few options of things to do when we arrived. We could ride the horses, go on a wagon ride, tour the old house or just wander the grounds. There was a huge line-up for the horseback-riding, so we opted for the wagon ride. It was pretty low-key but fun.
This gaucho was nicknamed "The Kissing Gaucho". And for very good reason! He would find any reason or excuse to kiss the women. It was pretty funny!
Then we toured the old ranch house. It was quite nice.
The lunch was amazing - as is all of the food here. It was an Argentinean parrilla, or BBQ. We had beef and sausage and chicken and salad and bread and beer and wine and anything that we wanted! Fantastic! Then there was a show. Music and tango and other dancing.
Look at these chairs made out of bone! Very cool!
After the show we went outside again for a gaucho rodeo! It was pretty amazing! The horses were beautiful!
And then we headed back to the city. It was a great way to spend our last day in Argentina! We would highly recommend it.
We just finished packing and are spending our last night in our Palermo Viejo apartment. We have a crazy journey ahead of us. We don't get home until Friday! We had a wonderful time but look forward to getting home too. Thanks for following us!
Did you guys sit in the creepy chairs??!?
ReplyDeleteNo! They were tiny and fragile and creepy!
ReplyDeleteNow that you know more about gauchos, have you heard of "Gauchito Gil"? Well, you may be haven´t but you may have seen it. When you are on the road going to the countryside or sometimes at crazy places, you may see a lot of red cloths tied to a tree and that means it is a tribute to this gaucho that died sadly. There was one in front of the apartment rental in Buenos Aires I had while there, so I asked someone walking by and they explained it to me!
ReplyDeleteExcellent website! I adore how it is easy on my eyes it is. I am questioning how I might be notified whenever a new post has been made. Looking for more new updates. Have a great day! gaucho tour
