Come on baby let's go to Vegas

Class was canceled on Thursday.  A day with nothing to do?  Let's jump on a bus!

Leigh, Juan, Austin and I headed to the town of Carlos Paz for the day.  Carlos Paz is some 40 minutes away from Cordoba, and it a common escape for the Cordobeses.  The day was dreary, but our spirits were high.  I was most looking forward to the chairlift that takes you up, up and away into the mountain.  Alas, it was under construction.  Rain pending, we headed to a small restaurant on the main strip and indulged in a healthy lunch of pizza and french fries.  Yes, yes I know.  I say again, don't judge.  It was delicious.


We wandered about the town, eating ice cream and taking in the sights that this place has to offer.  Finally, getting chilled, my companions and I decided to head inside, and check out something else Carlos Paz is famous for.... casinos.  I felt like I was on the set of Ocean's 11!  It was fun just to walk around and take in the lights and glamor.  My friends tried their hands at some blackjack and it was fun to watch.  Afterward, we headed back to Cordoba, but it was a nice way to spend the day seeing more of what this great province has to offer.


Thanks for another fun day Cordoba!
