We toured the "tranquilo", small city and walked through their cultural center, but the main attraction of this visit was a place called "Esteros de Ibera". This is the second most important wetland in the world. We got up close and personal with the wildlife - crocodiles, capybaras (carpinchos - the world`s largest rodent), and at least a zillion different kinds of birds.
A great shot of a crane snacking on a pirahna. Buena suerte con su almuerzo!
We also had our first glimpse of a true gaucho, the Argentine cowboy. Yee haw!
Mercedes is the only club we`ve seen that owns their own meeting space. It was adorned with rotary banners from all over the world.
We ended our visit to Mercedes on a sweet note - CRE-MO-LA-TI!! You scream, we scream, Rotary screams for ice cream!
