International Incident


Greetings from Argentina! I have been remiss in my posting but there isn´t great access in the Andes and to be honest, I´ve been full of meat and wine for the past week or so and blogging was not first on my agenda. I´m now in Buenos Aires and it is raining, so now seemed as good a time as any. You can find photos of BA and Iguazu Falls here. (Thanks for the posting tip Rebekspe!)

Argentina is incredibly georgeous and incredibly cheap. People consume wine here like it is water. Seriously, today I passed a car wash that had a wine bar inside so people to drink while they waited for their car. Brilliant! Yesterday we were in Tupungato and rode horses all around the base of the mountain. That right, a bunch of horses asses on horses. The pictures are priceless. It was also record cold. Figures. The day before was spent on wine tours and the day before that we were at the Aconcagua. Top of The Americas baby! You will also be happy to know that we have introduced the phrase "el borachasso" to Mendoza and the wine country. And then HP02 demonstrated for the locals. This is a fantasic story better told with wine.

There is so much more, but I have someone hovering over my shoulder. Via Con Dios for now!
