... on the shore of the Lake Guiterrez and made our way to a nearby hotel to meet our kayaking guides. We were the only ones booked in for the afternoon, so we had guide Gaston all to ourselves, and were accompanied by a photographer for the whole trip. It was a gorgeous setting on a peaceful lake under the jagged peaks behind Bariloche. On the outward trip Patrick was in the front of Blair's kayak, and I was with Gaston. We paddled for about an hour and stopped on ...

... Isn't it strange the things you miss most from home? I really miss good chewing gum that doesn't turn into a strange slim in your mouth after less than one minute chewing and that actually tastes of something other than nothing! I also miss watching a decent news channel that isn't CNN that only covers the American elections, I am not American and am not going to vote, and I am sure there is other more interesting news stories happening in the States but they never report on them ...

The seven courses were, terrain of pork and caramelized pumpkin seeds, amuse bouche of Asian hot soup, rabbit and mini pizza, fresh hot ciabatta bread, couscous avocado and crab tower, the most tender delicate venison served with apple, red cabbage and hazelnuts, slow roasted melt in ...

... wasps and packs of dogs. The next day we were up bright and early (not really but it sounds good) and headed down for a fantastic breakfast of croissants and jam. We then headed on a wander (marathon) to find some waterfalls and views of the lakes. After a while it was obvious we were on the wrong track when a rude Argie basically told us to naff off. It all turned out well though as we stumbled across a beautiful lake where we went for a ...
