EN-PT Destination Mendoza: Buenos Aires 2

in Worldmappin4 months ago (edited)

Welcome all, fellow Hivers, it is with great pleasure that I am on vacation from work, and from Hive too.

But a real vacation requires a minimum of effort to record the moments that immortalize them.

So this is another post, in a series of posts entitled Destination Mendoza where I will be traveling through Argentina for the second time.


Day 3 - August 16

On this day we made the trip from the city of Buenos Aires to Mendoza.

While we enjoyed a great breakfast at the hotel in Buenos Aires, no one could have imagined the hell that was about to unfold!

We decided to dedicate our morning to the beautiful place El Ateneo, a splendid building that houses a bookstore on three floors of pure splendor. From its facade we can admire the beauty of the architecture of the place, and its interior is breathtaking!

We allowed ourselves to explore each corridor and explore all the beauties. In addition to doing some shopping, of course.

We selected two books, which were in Spanish (we are Portuguese speakers). It's interesting that my ten-year-old daughter selected a literature book and insisted on bringing it.

It seems to me that she's going to study Spanish as a foreign language, so I'll think about a course for children.

El Ateneo also has a vinyl section, and we were surprised to see some cassette tapes for sale! Something rare to see! My selection was two Ozzy albums!!

After a few hours we left and surrendered to the ease of imperialist capitalist consumerism: McDonalds. We are not regulars, but to give you an idea of ​​the prices, we paid around USD 8 for a BigMac combo. We discovered that they also serve coffee with croissants, an Argentine classic!

It was time to check in for the flight, and we were surprised to see that the departure airport had changed. Buenos Aires has two main airports and we were prepared to live in the area of ​​one of them, so this unexpected change caused us to reschedule our activities and incur additional travel costs.

Our Uber went through two unexpected roadblocks and had to make some changes to the route, but we had time and didn't worry.

Once at Ezeiza Airport, we found our boarding gate and headed to the boarding area, where the police were very strict in their inspections, which we passed without any problems.

At our boarding gate, our flight was listed as “on time” until it was changed to “Closed” and we were soon informed that our departure would be rescheduled with a 4-hour delay!

Flybondi* gave us a food voucher: a soft drink and two empanadas. Disappointing.

With this flight delay, we missed the time to buy tickets for our snow tour. We had cash (ARS), a credit card and also funds in accounts in Brazil.

Unfortunately, we were unable to find a compatible payment method to transfer these amounts. After much difficulty, we managed to get a payment link and bought the tickets.

Upon arriving in Mendoza we went straight to the snow equipment store, tried on our clothes and shoes, and headed off to rest.

In the next post, we will arrive at the snow park!


Summary of the day:

  • We woke up in Buenos Aires
  • We slept in Mendoza
  • Tours: El Ateneo Grand Splendid

Sejam todos bem vindos, amigos Hivers, é com muito prazer que estou de férias do trabalho, e da Hive também.

Mas férias de verdade exigem um mínimo esforço para o registro que eternizam dos momentos.

Então este é mais um post, de uma série de postagens entituladas Destination Mendoza onde estarei percorrendo a Argentina pela segunda vez.


Dia 3 - 16 de agosto

Neste dia realizamos o deslocamento da cidade de Buenos Aires para Mendoza.

Enquanto aproveitamos um ótimo café da manhã do hotel em Buenos Aires, ninguem poderia imaginar o inferno que estava para se apresentar!

Decidimos por dedicar nossa manhã ao belíssimo local El Ateneo, um edificio esplêndido que abriga uma livraria em três andares de puro esplendor. Desde sua fachada podemos admirar a beleza da arquitetura do local, e seu interior é de tirar o fôlego!

Nos permitimos conhecer cada corredor e explorar todas as belezas. Alem de realizar algumas compras, é claro.

Selecionamos dois livros, que vieram em espanhol (nós somos falantes de português). Curioso que minha filha de dez anos selecionou um livro de literatura, e insistiu em trazer.

Me parece que vai estudar espanhol como lingua estrangeira, vou pensar em um curso para crianças.

El Ateneo também conta com uma seção de discos vinil, e ficamos surpresos em ver algumas fitas k7 a venda! Algo raro de se ver! Minha seleção ficou em dois disco do Ozzy!!

Após algumas horas saimos e nos rendemos à facilidade do consumismo capitalista imperialista: McDonalds. Não somos frequentadores, mas para se ter uma ideia de preços nós pagamos cerca de USD 8 por um combo BigMac. Descobrimos que também servem café com medialunas, classico argentino!

Hora de realizar o check in do vôo, e fomos surpreendidos com a troca do aeroporto de partida. Buenos Aires tem dois aeroportos principais e nos preparamos para habitar a região de um deles, então essa troca imprevista nos causou uma reprogramação de atividades e um custo adicional de deslocamento.

Nosso Uber passou por dois imprevistos de bloqueio nas vias e teve de fazer algumas modificações no trajeto, mas estavamos com tempo e não nos preocupamos.

Ja no Aeroporto Ezeiza, localizamos nosso portão de embarque e nos dirigimos para área de embarque, onde a policia ae mostrou bastante rigida na fiscalização, que superamos sem problemas.

Já em noso portão de embarque, nosso vôo era dado como “on time” até que foi alterado para “Closed” e logo fomos informados de uma reprogramação de partida com 4 horas de atraso!

A companhia Flybondi nos cedeu um voucher de alimentação: um refrigerante e duas empanadas. Decepcionante.

Com esse atraso do vôo, perdemos o horário para compra dos bilhetes para nosso passeio na neve. Tínhamos dinheiro em espécie (ARS), cartão de crédito e também fundos em contas do Brasil.

Infelizmente não conseguiamos uma forma de pagamento compativel para movimentar esses valores. Após muitas dificuldades conseguimos um link de pagamento e compramos os bilhetes.

Ao chegar em Mendoza fomos direto a loja de equipamentos de neve, provamos as roupas e calçados, e partimos para nosso descanso.

Na próxima postagem chegaremos ao parque se neve!


Resumo do dia:

  • Acordamos em Buenos Aires
  • Dormimos em Mendoza
  • Passeios: El Ateneo Grand Splendid

Congratulations @crazyphantombr! You received the biggest smile and some love from TravelFeed! Keep up the amazing blog. 😍 Your post was also chosen as top pick of the day and is now featured on the TravelFeed front page.

Thanks for using TravelFeed!
@for91days (TravelFeed team)

PS: Did you know that we have our own Hive frontend at TravelFeed.com? For your next travel post, log in to TravelFeed with Hive Keychain or Hivesigner and take advantage of our exclusive features for travel bloggers.

I'm sorry, I thought these responses were automatic!

I thank the curators for the opportunity, and I promise to do a test on the front end in the next post!

A big hug to the whole team From here, in Buenos Aires! tomorrow I'll be at Il Caminito and La Bombonera! (Messi!!)

Only the comments when your post gets added to the map are automatic. We read every post, all curation is done by hand 😃 Let us know how you like our frontend! How was Il Caminito and La Bombonera?

Thanks for stopping by!

I had unexpected problems when using the frontend.

Unfortunately, I only speak Portuguese. I create content in Portuguese and use a translator. But travelfeed doesn't allow you to copy the text you created to translate. This is because it uses a type of content block. (Note that I'm traveling and editing only using my cell phone.)

So I created the text and couldn't translate it into English. I had to improvise some words, and it was a little below my standard quality :)

But now I'm back to creating in InLeo, and now I can select the text and translate it normally. Unfortunately, this is a strategic issue for the developers.

I'm always available to give my opinion if you want an "outside" view.

Somehow missed your reply... Sorry.

If you want the standard html/markdown editor experience like on other Hive frontends, you can switch to it using the button below the editor.

In EasyEditor selecting the whole post works great on desktop, but you are right, it doesn't seem to work on mobile.

EasyEditor has it perks though, for translation using the built-in TravelFeed AI is cool:

cool!
I have saved a special moment that I intend to post using a computer, so I could test the front-end features better!

La Bombonera is closed to visitors!

What a terrible decision by the board!

What a shame!

That is awesome! I love Buenos Aires! That is so funny you found The Blizzard of Ozz there, that was on my last Three Tune Tuesday! It's such a pretty place, I'm glad you guys had fun there!

Hello!
I'm back from vacation and I'm responding to the comments that I'm late to!
Mendoza is a city with a very different geography than what I'm used to! I missed the green grass, the trees with wide leaves and strong colors. Everything seemed a little dull. The mountains bothered my lenses with the dust, I should have worn glasses... everything was new, and yet I loved the city!

Hello!

I did look for Ozzy, I like some of his repertoire. I also looked for The Phantom of the Opera, but they didn't have it. I would have bought that one without thinking twice!

Beautiful ✨️

Hahaha, que legal! Uma pergunta: o que você achou dos preços aí? Tipo, antigamente, todo mundo comprava perfume em Buenos Aires porque era mais barato do que no Brasil. E agora, com a situação econômica atual, você acha que os preços ainda compensam?
Só um adendo, se essa mudança de aeroporto fosse comigo, eu teria perdido o voo, sempre chego atrasada ao aeroporto. Eu sempre acabo correndo para o portão de embarque; não sei como consigo! Que bom que, no fim, deu certo comprar os bilhetes para a neve. Que aventura! Deve ter sido uma correria, mas essas histórias são as que tornam as viagens mais inesquecíveis, não é?

This is probably the most beautiful and majestic bookstore I've ever seen :) !MEME

majestic is a word made for this place! it's surreal!

Surrealism usually implies something incomprehensible and somewhat alien, but here we see a classic, good taste and the denomination of the builders' skill. !VSC

In Brazil, we say surreal when something goes beyond our best expectations, it doesn't correspond to the dictionary meaning. Unless they are people in the arts or literature field, of course!

In fact, it's a classic! And soon we'll go to the "popular" area of the city.
