We're putting the finishing touches on our plans for our honeymoon in October, and I wanted to make one big thread to keep track of it because I have 999 other things going on. Flying on AA for the international legs and LAN for the local. So this thread is to help iron out an itinerary for each day and find out where we have holes in our travel plans. Any help is appreciated.
BsAs -
We're leaving the US for BsAs, Argentina on Oct 9th, landing early in the morning on Friday Oct 10th. We're going to be staying at Casa Palermitano( http:\\www.casapalermitano.com ) in BsAs Friday night- Sunday night
We're going to stop by the b&b and drop off our bags early, then come back in the afternoon to formally check in. No definite plans for our time in BsAs, except that we want to visit Guacho1000k's wine shop, catch a futbol match(our b&b offers to make arrangements, but still waiting to see the cost, they offerred a car from the airport for AR$140, which is a little high), Fiancee also wants to catch a tango show and wander over to Casa Rosada(musical fan. sigh) Other than that we're going to try to pick up a list of reasonable restaurant recommendations(I'd like a nice steak once or twice, and she's vegetarian so it might be difficult, but we'd like to find some good local food.) I don't want to have every minute of every day planned but we'd like to have a list ready of a few restaurants that are known good to eat at.

Iguazu -
Monday afternoon we are flying to Iguazu Falls and staying at the Hotel Psada la sorgente ( http://www.lasorgentehotel.com/ ) for monday - Wednesday night. We are also thinking about Secret garden B&B (http://www.secretgardeniguazu.com/), but both seem like good places. Sorgente hotel has offered to arrange a car for AR$50.
Monday night we will probably settle into our hotel and explore the town some, grabbing dinner. Tuesday we'll get up and head to the falls, probably spend most of the day in the park and maybe take the boat or jeep ride. Wednesday will probably be the same thing. Will take food with us to the park or find a snack there and then eat in town each night.

Bariloche -

Thursday morning up early and back to the airport. Sit through a layover in BsAs and then on to bariloche. Find a car or a bus to get us to our house, settle in and find food.
Thursday -Sunday we are staying at the barilochehouse ( http://barilochehouse.com/ )
Thursday morning up early and back to the airport. Sit through a layover in BsAs and then on to bariloche. Find a car or a bus to get us to our house, settle in and find food. Still pretty open here on plans, we've heard there are 150 things to do, we just haven't found any that stand out yet. We have the bulk of our time here, we hope to relax and take in as much as we can.
We still have sunday and monday night to find lodging for, we're trying to arrange a horseback ride with Carol Jones ( http://www.caroljones.com.ar ), still not sure if she will be offering an overnight trip or if we will be grabbing a hotel, fiance is wanting to splurge and get Los Juncos (www.visitlosjuncos.com
) if we do need a hotel.

Going home :(
---------------------------------------
Tuesday the 21st we're catching an afternoon flight back to BA and then a 10pm flight to take us home.
Might have to make a layover to guacho100k to pick up our wine so we aren't lugging it around for the entire trip, but hope to pick it out at the start of our trip to make sure we get to our flight out with plenty of time to go.
