Day in an Estancia

On Friday we went to an Estancia, a large tract of land with a beautiful old house. The estancia, called La Esperanza, was founded in 1854 and belongs to the same family that founded it.







The owner of the estancia told us regardign the rich history of his family and how the main house was built and the very smart design to protect the member of the family from the attact of the natives of that part of Argentina










We have the opportunity to learn about dances and dresses from the early generations of the family.





We also have the opportunity of demonstrate our habilities with the dance.




We have lunch under the shadow of many trees and we had an exquisite lamb.

After a great day in the countryside we returned to Rosario and enjoyed a dinner next to the river.
