Mendoza
April 13-16th
Leaving Chile so I get a new visa |
Waiting to stamp our passports in the lines that are for cars |
Trees making a bridge over every street |
Shopping in the park, mom with the necklace she bought |
Outside the nice (and warm!) café |
Lots of water in some of the gutters |
Entrance to the big park in Mendoza |
Pepper trees |
Campgrounds with table, asado, running water, light and garbage can for each site |
Our guides for horseback riding |
And we are ready to go |
My first time on a horse |
Mom with gentlest horse they had |
Clara and Martina in the mountains |
Pollo al disco when we came back |
Eating our chicken on bread, we were hungry by then |
Mom in the chocolate store on Easter |
Martina at the hostel |
Our Hostel |
Mom and dad enjoying the view on the bus back to Santiago |
Cute cactuses sticking up like heads in the valleys |
View of the mountains as we leave the city |
Resevoir with Medozas drinking water |
Martina and I on the bus home |
In the foothills beyond the refinery is where we went horseback riding |
On our way to Argentina looking up at the road to the border |
Looking down the Chilean side of the border in cold, grey weather |
Nice colours in the rock |
Same road but on our way home with warm sunny weather |
Curvy road down on the Chilean side of the border (same valley as above) |
