The Rosenbloom Family (2 adults and 3 teenagers) from the Boston area traveled to three countries in South America this month.  Their first stop was in Buenos Aires to meet up with their oldest who was studying there for the semester.  They enjoyed their stay at the Alvear Palace in the heart of the Recolata and seeing the city from their daughter’s point of view.  Activities included a Jewish tour of the city and a tango show at Esquina Carlos Gardel (tacky touristy, but fun).  Next stop…Brazil for the amazing Iguassu Falls.  They stayed at the hotel closest to the falls, the Belmond Das Cataratas.  The highlight here was the inflatable boat trip up to the falls with a hike in the jungle as well.  A true wonder of nature as they described.  The trip ended in Uruguay in the laid back beach town of Punta del Este and a stay the Il Belvedere hotel in a spacious house rental.  Overall a very smooth trip with plenty of great meals and a nice mix of urban vs. natural settings.  Having one family member fluent in Spanish also helped!
