We crossed the border once again into Argentina. This time we have to make the most of it. After Argentina...goodbye yummy pastries for breakfast for lunch and goodbye postres after dinner. We have been in a sugar coma since we got here, but it all ends when we leave Argentina for the last time! But for the moment we are in wine counrty. We rented bikes and toured around visiting vineyard after vineyard. If you are expecting to see Napa Valley like vineyards, you will be just as disappointed as we were. But the wines were great and the day was a blast!

We also went to a place where they make olive oil. These are all olive trees. The best part was the tasting afterwards!
