But...we couldn´t miss stopping in Mendoza, Argentina´s wine region, which is especially famous for Malbec, which is a delicious red (you should try it if you see a bottle back home).

... ce qui fait toute la différence.
A midi, après s'êtres rapprochés au plus près du paysage et le ciel étant dégagé, nous nous arrêtons le temps du déjeuner. Cet instant restera à jamais gravé dans ma mémoire.
