Lujan

We had been told that there's a great church about an hour or so outside Buenos Aires in a town called Lujan.  We decided a Saturday would be a perfect time to go visit the church and get outside the city for a day.  So, we gathered our (currently our only roomate) and a friend of Johns from work and took the bus to Lujan.  We didnt really know what to expect, but it honestly blew my mind!  It was a giant, beautiful church...kind of in the middle of nowhere! 

All around the church were relics and offerings (of very high quality as you can see).

Lujan is supposed to be full of parillas (grills) so we decided to stay for lunch and enjoy a parilla.  It was an all you can eat-literally translated to "free fork."  We had empanadas, salad, bread, potato salad, meat, meat, meat and ice cream.  I dont know if we ended up choosing the right one, nobody else was really there...

It was a great day all the same.  Getting out of Buenos Aires for a day was nice and seeing a new part of Argentina was lovely!
