Shreena came and met me at the Cordoba airport on Monday morning. I wasn't sure who was coming to get me or how they would recognize me, so I tried to just stand conspicuously in the front of the pick up area. Eventually I met up with Shreena, her mom and her sister. After getting everything situated, Shreena and I headed into the city. We spent most of the day trying out different plazas around the city, and discussing our plan for the next few days. Now, we finally have all our reservations and plans in place.
We left for Mendoza on an overnight bus, and reached here hot and dirty, but well rested, on Tuesday morning. We are now checked into our hostel. After cleaning up and getting situated, we wandered into the main city center a bit and found ourselves some more empanadas.
On Wedesday we went on a bodega tour on bikes. Luckily we were paired up with a couple of locals who helped us around. It was a lot of fun to be riding around in the countryside. The wine was nice, too! We visited bodegas called Filosofos, Plumary and Alta Vista.
On Thursday we took a bus tour up into the Andes, nearly to the border with Chile. Beautiful views, very reminiscent of Colorado.
We are heading out of Mendoza now, on an overnight bus back to Cordoba where we will catch a flight tomorrow morning to Iguazu Falls. More posts from there!
