Uspallatta Dec 20th

We have had little or no internet connection for a while so I will try to catch up now.

Our last night in Bariloche was superb with a steak dinner with four friends. Francois and Satcha two lovely swiss guys bought two kilos of the best argentine beef and cooked it to perfectio. We Amie and Marisca provided potatoes salad and red wine and heaven.

Mendoza

On a very cold day we boarded the bus for Mendoza. We should have gone first class with the lads as they has champagne and beds on the bus.16 hours later Mendoza and so hot. Checked loads of no good hostels and after two nights moved to Uspallatta.



Fantastic 1700m hostel first building after lots of gorges. Gabriel made us welcome to his most relaxed place. Cycled into mountains which were like a furnace in colour and temp. A great rafting trip and then horse riding before another steak dinner with our mates. Stan in training for Mt Aconcagua waked 6kms to town and carried 27kgs of food and drink back. The 5ltr bottles of Malbec for $10 were a bonus. Big bonfire to finish off.
