  • well good morning guys and greetings from

  • i think today we're going to be leaving the  province of jujuy a little bit early than expected  

  • because the altitude has just been wreaking  havoc especially on my dad today i think is  

  • like day five of like no food and just feeling  really really sick so we've actually booked a  

  • hotel near the airport in salta argentina because  we're flying out tomorrow and we're just gonna  

  • you know pack it up load the car and leave this  afternoon we had initially planned to do a big  

  • barbecue we wanted to do a jujuy style barbecue  show you the wines we bought and all that and  

  • yeah i mean we went to the supermarket we  got the meat we got the charcoal so we're  

  • just we're making a quick barbecue to just eat  a lunch um we'll show you a bit of that but then  

  • the goal is to just go back to salta because  we're going to be descending about 1400 meters  

  • which is quite a bit and that should improve the  situation we had grand plans for our biggest auto  

  • and we were going to stay here another nightthink you already mentioned that but um we bought  

  • some meat yesterday we're gonna cook it up havelittle bit and there's a dog that's been hanging  

  • around here i think we're going to feed it  barbecue for the dog the grill master today is our  

  • commission you know out of commission not feeling  his best so this is a real travel day right here  

  • low energy feelings yeah guys change of plans  like this is this is one of those times where it's  

  • almost like you don't even know if you should film  it or not but trying to be realistic and show you  

  • what like kind of a not so great day it looks like  um none of us are feeling that good and sharing  

  • with my friend the dog he's already finished  his first phone my goodness we have a fast  

  • eater yeah we're just having a quick lunch on the  go gonna load the car head south you ready for it

  • oh

  • here we are at the gas station fueling  up and getting ready to start the journey  

  • south sam got me some doritos and  gatorade i can't forget the alfajor  

  • i'm gonna be driving today so that hopefully my  dad can rest a bit he hasn't been sleeping at  

  • night i don't know if you'll be able to sleep  in the car let's go probably not probably not  

  • normally not probably not oh man we're all we're  all dropping like flies here my stomach is a bit  

  • weird today like you've had a sore throat yeah  and um yeah we had a great time up north but uh  

  • our health is failing us so we are we are leaving  a night early going back to sea level yeah we're  

  • not quite quite tomorrow 1400 meters lower  i'm tomorrow and tomorrow will be at sea level  

  • yeah so yeah that's a plan i'll be driving right  so basically we found a hotel slightly outside  

  • of salta argentina near by the airport  and um yeah we got about three hours to

  • drive

  • we're rolling welcome to our hotel  here in the outskirts of salta  

  • we conveniently chose a property that's  maybe like five minutes from the airport so  

  • getting there tomorrow is going to be super  easy yeah but yeah i think i had a good drive  

  • three hours i drove back did well you did really  well it was nice because we were able to avoid uh  

  • going back through salt to city oh yeah we didn't  have to deal with downtown traffic my goodness  

  • so yeah i should tell you we got an excellent  deal on this place we found it on booking.com  

  • this morning like while we were eating  breakfast we were looking for hotels  

  • and we paid 25 per room 27 27 okay 27 per room  yeah but it includes half board so that means  

  • dinner tonight and then breakfast the  following morning yeah i mean 27 divided by two  

  • that's less than fourteen dollars per person for  places to sleep in two meals yeah for us and then  

  • you basically your dad is it's the full 27 but  he has his own room he has uh yes he has three  

  • beds in his room very spacious rooms are huge and  um aside from that we're gonna how we're gonna  

  • do this this vlog at this point it's gonna be  travel vlog and we're gonna take we're gonna take  

  • you to buenos aires so we're gonna show you the  flight and we're gonna head back to the capitol  

  • our time in northern argentina has basically come  to an end that's it we spent quite a bit of time  

  • here we were in uh we started in tukuman yeah and  then we came to salta province of argentina for a  

  • while and then we were in overall really good  i mean our health failed us a bit near the end  

  • but uh luckily today finally is the first day  i'm doing better yeah because uh i'm taking some  

  • antibiotics yeah and uh i'm on my third pill  and it's uh day and night uh difference yeah  

  • these past four days it was just a horror horror  story we thought it was the altitude sickness  

  • but it wasn't it was some sort of a bug or uh  some sort of uh yeah i don't know something  

  • for four or five days yeah and it was extremely  debilitating because diarrhea and nausea and you  

  • feel like vomiting and your strength is depleted  i mean to the point you cannot even stand up so  

  • this is the worst yeah this is the worst now  i'm back to kind of a normal we came down 1400  

  • meters yesterday yeah and i mean salt is still  fairly high up but it's just considerably lower  

  • than huhui yeah and today we're flying to  basically close to sea level in buenos aires  

  • level and uh well if you come and visit and you go  over up to the mountain areas or whatever and you  

  • happen to get sick yeah don't forget that here  in argentina you can go to your local pharmacy  

  • yeah and talk to the pharmacist and in most  cases he can prescribe you like we got some  

  • antibiotics and stuff like that thanks god because  uh that's what saved the day yeah yeah it's not as  

  • strict yeah as in some other countries like canada  if you don't have a prescription forget it the  

  • pharmacy only over the counter uh medication the  rest forget it but here is more lux you can save  

  • a vacation let's say you know i mean yesterday's  decision to come here was probably one of the best  

  • uh things we decided on the whole trip we've all  got healthy we all had a really good sleep last  

  • night we weren't rushed to leave in the morning  yeah and this was a nice place uh the a-ball hotel  

  • fabio los hotel right next to the airport we gotnice dinner a nice breakfast the price it's just i  

  • couldn't believe it because by the price that  uh you pay here for that double room you get  

  • dinner and breakfast uh with a lot of stuff in  that breakfast huh oh it's great ham cheese fruits  

  • fruit salads croissants coffee whatever even  a swimming pool and it's a locked in uh yeah  

  • area there is no access for other people so if you  have the chance and you need to stay here close  

  • to the airport this is the spot and now we've  got a flight we've got norwegian air a budget  

  • flight back to uh to buenos aires argentina and  i think that's it i think you know if we're all

  • probably steak tonight so we don't want to  blow it we don't want to blow it for lunch

  • so yeah we made it to buenos aires argentina back  uh we had a beautiful flight eh oh it's great but
