In Banda Oriental there are more roads and less trees and forests than ever before. They cut down a lot of trees to make room for ports for trading goods because Banda Oriental Borders a large river going towards the Atlantic Ocean. They also use the river for fishing. So its basically just a big trading and fishing town. Thats how we got our fish for dinner, by trading the peaches we got from a neighboring towns farm. You would expect to see more forests and trees you go to South America but since all of the deforestation there hasn't bean a lot of trees on our expidition. In Buenos Aires we traded more peaches for fire wood so we wouldn't freeze over night. At night it was cold but in the day it was humid with a lot of moisture. It seems as is the earth around here has gotten used to it by producing a clayey like material that just hardens when it gets really dry and hot. The people grow poplars, olives, peaches, and other fruits on farms. There are a lot more urban areas in Argentina than there was a long time ago. Argentina in an independant nation but some of the islands we went to were not like the Falkland islands. We mostly used Argentine Peso as an currency but we also traded items for other items. The standard of living is better than it was but it still isn't very good but its getting better day by day. A lot of people are still jobless and homeless. We finally saw forests when we went to Tierra Del Fuego. There was at least an acre of protected land. It was very Beautiful.

In Guardia del Monte is a little town with many gardens and farms. In the Pampas there are countless herds of horses, cattle, and sheep. They have almost banishedguanco and deer because they eat to much of the vegitation. It is sad because they use the cattle for fighting untill they die. It was a nice expidition!
