It's like leaving heaven and going to hell...
in a single day.
This was Paul's comment about 40 minutes ago, after arguing with a woman about 'Barrato' prices (she was adamit that her $50 a night room was a fair deal and we'd never be able to find better in the states...). Somehow, we've departed our lovely country called Argentina and entered, what is appropriately named 'Chili'. I don't mean to place a cruel label upon the whole country -they've already done that with their name- it's just that we expected a specific price scale, and instead have been introduced to something far different; and far more pricey.
The area is somewhat nice, but the reality of pricing has reduced the overall pleasure to something between... well, I'll refrain from using descriptives. Anyway, We'll probably be here for another night, as passages to Ushuaia are filled until Tuesday (FYI, our hotel is $44 a night, a far cry from the 10 - 20 prices we were paying before). SO, tomorrow will be filled with a walking tour of the city.
