    When you cross the border between Argentina and Brazil the routine is the same regardless of which way you're traveling. Your bus or taxi will stop at the border checkpoint and you will have to exit and go into a small, narrow room and line up. When you get to the customs officer, you will be asked for your passport. If you are going into Brazil, be sure you have any necessary tourist visas. Keep in mind that Brazil has a reciprocity policy so if your home country requires Brazilians to get a tourist visa to visit, then you will also be require to have a visa to go into Brazil.

    During the wedding where we were invited, we get the chance to see a funny wedding tradition :
    This is a funny Argentinian wedding custom :
    the husband has to take off the garters (at least 10!!!) - one by one - of the leg of his wife to put them on the leg of single women : it is to give them the chance to get marry too!!!! At the same time, you can imagine the embarrassement of the husband with all the nude legs of other women!!!!
