Uge 2: up and down

Up:
1. Maipú in Mendoza. Wine, wine and more wine.
2. The Andes - my god are they impressive!
3. The best turist guides in Mendoza who picked us up in soaring 37°C in the outskirts of the park of Mendoza. We were looking for the statue of liberation but had a awful map and no real idea of how big the park actually was. They saw us, realised that we were lost and drove us to the statue. In our defence people get lost a lot in the park and we were heading the right way.
4. Valparaiso! An absolutely beautiful city. We stayed at the best hostel ever! Hostel de Mariposas. The owner was an American guy who came to valparaiso 20 years ago and just never left.
5. Boat cruise in Valparaiso. With booze - a bit too much maybe.....

Down:
1. Ville and I got sick from the boat cruise and had to go on a bus ride to bariloche the next day.
2. Boarder crossing - my god this could be optimised! 3-4 hours just waiting...
3. Bus with bad air conditioning for 15 hours. Kill me now that was hot!
