The Falkland Islands

We're getting used to the new currency. The Argentinian peso (ARS, or just $) used to worth exactly US$1, but after the country's economic problems it's worth a bit less. Converting to pounds is easy - just divide by 5, so Ar$1 is 20p. Internet access here is Ar$2 an hour, which is pretty cheap compared to Chile.

Anyway, the 10 peso note has a picture General Manuel Belgrano on the front, which, inevitably, reminded me of the Falkland Islands. I'd kind of like to visit, but flights there are hugely expensive, and there's really nothing to do except look at sheep, so we'll probably give it a miss!
