Mendoza

We decided to be adventurous and took a bus from Buenos Aires to Mendoza; around 13 hours. No, we are not mad as it was absolute luxury. We boarded our 'Royal Suite' double-decker bus with fully-reclining flat bed leather seats at around 8pm. Dinner and drinks were served in airline style and then we could sleep or watch a movie on individual screens with headphones. We were given blankets and pillows and it was comfy for sleeping. The overnight buses are probably better as one sleeps and doe...

Great to be back in Paris- - - I mean Buenos Aires

Saturday, March 18 Left Rosario at 09:30 aboard Chevallier Bus Line for Buenos Aires, a four hour trip costing 30 pesos. As one approaches this city of 2.7 million people and keeps driving and driving, you realize just how large this city is. However, this was my second visit and it was reassuring to recognize certain landmarks and when the sign said Retiro--10km, I knew that is the bus station. It was also easy this time to take the Subte (Metro) from Retiro on Linea C to Avenida de Mayo and...

A farm day...

Yesterday was a good day. We got up at 7:00am, which I could have done without, and went with Carlos to work. Actually it was kinda of nice to wake up early. We went to the site of a new vineyard he´s managing and it wasn´t even light out yet. It was beautiful watching the sunrise in the vineyard, especially with 8 foot hight parrel vines around you! We spent ...

Mellowed out in Mendoza

... brightest turquoise water you can imagine - it looks like there are turqouise strobe under-lighting!! On the ferry back we enjoyed whisky 'on the rocks' fresh from the glacier! Back in town, I went out for dinner with a couple of guys from the hostel before an early night...ready for an even earlier 5am start! Another beautiful sunrise over the Andean mountains as a small group of us took the 5hr journey over into Chile's Torres del Paine ...

WHAT DOESN´T KILL YOU................

MAKES YOU STRONGER. I realize the problem with my present system of recording information re credit and debit cards. I have cancelled most of them and frozen one that I can unfreeze to access money. Live and learn. The concern re money lost eg maximum $100. US pales in contrast to what identity theft could do to your accounts even though companies try to reassure you of zero liability.

Mendoza Wine Festival

... snakes up the Aconcagua valley to reach the Chilean-Argentine border at approx. 10,000 feet. Awesome mountain views appear around every corner during this part of the journey! Aconcagua, South America's highest peak, at 6962m (22,841 ft), even showed itself a few times ...

Maipu: Sur la route des vins

... d'enfin arriver à la première bodega, "La Rural" qui possède un musée du vin dans lequel sont entreposés une kyrielle d'outils et d'engins utilisés anciennement par les viticulteurs. La visite du musée et de la bodega se termine par une dégustation d'un verre de vin de maison, cuvée spéciale "musée" qui ne transcende rien. Mais bon, au moins c'est gratuit! Ils semblent avoir de meilleures cuvées dans les vitrines d'exposition mais celles-ci sont nettement moins abordables ($200 ...

Bed bug nightmares, Part II

... anyway. We only had a ceiling fan in the room so to get a little extra ventilation I opened the windows but kept the shutters closed to allow a little airflow, so the following morning when I woke with an itchy bite on my shoulder I thought I might have let in a few mosquitoes. Still groggy I shuffled to the bathroom to inspect the damage in the mirror and to my horror discovered not one bite but several bite all over my shoulder. I knew immediately that these were ...

Day 178 - Mendoza

... where lots of locals have their wedding photos taken.

About half an hour later we found it, very cute.



We picked up some ice cream on the way down, a 1/4 lb tub each (!) with 2 flavours and then sat in the shade in the middle of the square wolfing it down! Tremendous.

How's work today everyone by the way ...
