Back down south again, west of Buenos Aires is Mendoza, a city not too big nor too small. I failed to walk to the hostel from the bus station and gave into the temptation of getting a taxi, I wasn't even half way and the taxi was dirt cheap, so I was happy. The hostel seemed decent, but the prices of their tours and activities were quite expensive. I spent the afternoon walking around the city, trying to get my bearings and finding cool things. I came across some travel agencys etc. and the prices for the same tours/activities was much cheaper. Because the next day was Sunday, I figured most places in town would be closed (their opening hours seemed to imply that) and decided to do an activity - rafting and canopy. On another note, in Mendoza they practice siesta much more than in Buenos Aires. Most (if not all) places in Mendoza's opening hours are as follows: 9am - 1pm and 4:30pm - 8:30 pm.. so thats nearly 4 hour lunch break.. to go home and sleep. Lucky for them! but it meant that there was little to do between 1 and 4pm mendoza

! SO anyway, I booked the stuff for the next day, discovered the use of skype at the net cafe (my skype name is steve.paule if anyone wants to add me) and ate dinner at some funky cafe/snack bar place. I got the cheapest thing ever (i was used to bolivian prices so thought everything was too expensive) which was quite tasty and enough to keep me happy that evening. All the chairs in there were facing the tv, it was quite funny. I discovered lomitos, which are smaller versions of lomos which are like burgers but the meat is actually a cut of meat rather than mushed up mince meat.. tasty and natural. I went back to the hostel and had an early night as I was going to have an early start.

THe rest coming soon
