Early July still, return to BA, get Yasmin´s Ipod and get on a bus for Iguazu

After a brief stint in Montevideo, we headed back to BA to pickup Yasmin´s Ipod and catch a bus to Iguazu falls. This would also be our 4th visit to the evil Argentinian Post office. After waiting for about an hour my number was finally called and I presented myself and the pickup slip to the counter, the woman at the counter started talking to me in Spanish at a million miles an hour and got very upset when I said "mas dispacio porfavor" which means "slower please". Luckily enough there were some other patrons who happened to be translators and they were able to tell me what was going on. In the end Yasmin received her Ipod and the Argentinian post officers didn't seem so bad considering they dropped the mysterious 600 peso pickup fee (we think the courier may have been trying to scam us).
After that, we all jumped on a bus which had hot meals served and seats that turned into beds! except for Pils, who took one for the team and travelled semi-cama (seat not fully reclinable) as the super-camas were booked out.
