Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 19 Author #2 Share Posted January 19 This started over 2 years ago. We almost always lead or travel in groups. This is a little different. Only my wife’s cousin joining us. She came from Ct and we from Florida planning to meetup in the airport in BA. That worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 19 Author #6 Share Posted January 19 Buenos Aries is a huge city. Would recommend another extra day. We only got a glimpse, but exhausted. So here are some pics from our walk around. Views from our room. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 19 Author #14 Share Posted January 19 Pool area at the Sheraton. Nap time after a cocktail or two. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BlerkOne Posted January 19 #15 Share Posted January 19 I did this trip last year, but on Infinity. Also stayed at the Sheraton. Got a great steak in the restaurant there. If you have time, the overnight Iguazu Falls excursion after the cruise was worth the outrageous price. Not sure what is going on with their currency these days, but last year received rebates on everything charged to credit cards. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 0106 Posted January 20 #24 Share Posted January 20 (edited) I am anxious to hear about your embarkation. I heard there was damage to the cruise terminal and that passengers now drop off luggage at another location and are bussed to the terminal. Specifically, if you only have carry on luggage can you go directly to the cruise port? I hope it all goes smoothly for you. Thanks for taking us along.
