El Tigre

 Before flying back at night, we went an hour Northeast of Buenos Aires to Tigre.  We went to the river market in search of alfajores, and then went on a boat ride through the "town."  

 

 

All of the homes are directly on the water without streets or cars.  They have electricity and internet, but have to bring in bottled water to drink and cook.  They have a filter system directly for the river to shower.  The supermarket is a boat.  The ambulance and police are all on boats.  

We finally found alfajores at the very end and also membrillo cookies (quince cookies).  The tour ended with a lovely Argentine lunch.

And just like that we were headed back to Chile!
