We are now three, or at least two, that is two Chris´. One of our co-taxi people trying to get to San Martin happened to be another Chris, Chris from Seattle. So we are now in San Martin de Los Andes enjoying more rain, except this time with high winds.
We treated our selves (Chris 1 and Justine that is) to a nice steak dinner and homemade pasta at a restaurant. We invested in a nice bottle of wine to top off the meal and still only paid about the equivalent of 30 USD... and the steak, although not flavourful was amazingly tender... .not something we can really explain in a blog, but people, you are definitely missing out and the stories of Argentinian beef are definitely true.
Today was spent perusing camping stores and gazing at all of the chocolate shops and rizty ski and hiking shops, full with Mountin Hardware, Arcyterix and other pricey goodies.
We did what we thought would be a nice day hike up to a look out... but it only took about
30 minutes and there were kids at the top looking for 1 peso to enter the ¨mirador¨. Still it was a nice hike with some fine views of the lakes and mountains, of course all obscured by the clouds and freshened by the winds.. but nice enough.
Now we are off to do some more window shopping once siesta is over. Tomorrow we head to Bariloche and will probably remain there until after Christmas..
