Visited the Gualicho Caves, just outside the town where there are a few cavemen rock paintings. Was pretty cool, most of the paintings either depict the fauna around in patagonia e.g. guanacos (llama type things), pumas, rheas (ostrich like things), etc. or figures depicting energy & spiritual connection. A common rock painting is the "negative hand" (paint brushed over the hand, showing a hand shadow in a blob of paint) depicting requests for energy and the "positive hand" (paint applied on the hand and slapped on) depicting either provision of energy or property stakes. These paintings are said to be around 4,000 yrs old!

Last night in Argentina, hopefully we can say goodbye to the creme de leche - itīs this caramalised condensed milk thing that feels like youīre eating a lump of sugar which has been boiled in sugar and then coated with sugar! And itīs eaten a lot even breakfast!
