salta y mendoza
i finally made it across the bol-arg border and hung out in a town called salta, which was a nice change from the bolivian towns i got used to. i had a salad and did laundry for the first time in like a month as well, which was awesome.
from there i made my way to mendoza, where i had plans to meet with liz. can not describe the feeling of happiness when i saw her at the hostel! we went horse back riding the other day and it was nice and relaxing… yesterday, i did the wineandbike , where you hire bikes and then visit wineries for tastings. it is 39· here and my friends and i got lost before we even started drinking, so we all were sweating and pedaling really slow…we must have looked so funny to all the cars passing by. there are no sidewalks either and it was really scary since the semi´s come really close…i swear some cars wanted to run us off the road.
since my knowledge of wines is carlo rossi burgandy, i felt i must have been enlightened sometime during one of the tastings cuz liz said the bottle i bought and brought back to our hostel was really good. go malbec!
