What's new, Buenos Aires?

We were able to get a steal on luxury bus tickets from Iguazu to Buenos Aires--cama bus (bed bus) for less than the price of a regular (non-reclining seat) bus. The only catch was that we had to rush back from the Brazilian side of the Falls in order to board the bus at 2 in the afternoon. The price of the ticket included dinner at the bus company's private restaurant, complete with a 3 course meal and servers in tuxedos!

The seats on "camabuses" are wider and recline more than regular bus seats.
