I was able to take a tour of the Facultad de Medicina, which is a private university awarding bachelor's level degrees in preparation to continue in a speciality in medical school. For about $180 a month, students are able to study in anatomy and physiology labs, do research, etc. About 20 percent of the students come from Brazil, which is just a few miles away.
The amazing thing is that people can come from other countries and public universities are free for them, too.
Yapeyu, the birthplace of Jose San Martin
There was a quick stopover and "hand over" in Yapeyu, the birthplace of Jose San Martin, the liberator of Argentina. We saw the small museum of his birthplace, and then continued on to Mercedes to have lunch with the District Governor.

Then on to Bella Vista and the Open Window English language school.
