Hospitality

20th March
So Laura and her famailies hospitality was so good that we just couldnĀ“t leave.
Free accomadation, great food at every meal and even washing our laundry.
All as if it was nothing, what a great family.
We spent the day visiting some of the suburbs and the university, then sipping mate in the park. A really enjoyable ritual.
They even waved us off at the bus station with a packed lunch.

21st March
Mendosa
So after an overnight bus we arrived in Mendosa bright and early.
We had a walk about the town.
Every street has big trees providing much needed shade, and irrigation channels to give the trees water.
Strangely this is the same solution as used in Rurre Bolivia for the opposite reason, Rurre had too much rain and here not enough, still plenty of big wholes to fall into.
Then the big treat, 500g sirloin steak, mmmm.
