Punta del Diablo is a small fishing/surfing village on the Atlantic coast of Uruguay just 40km from the Brazilian border. We spent much of our days chillin and surfin! Heavennnnnn Surfing was extremely fun, the kids were so pumped to do it no second thoughts just GO ......me not so much a little nervous of the big waves and well (my thoughts briefly wandered to Jaws/SoulSurfer :) ridiculous I know that's just my fear talkin. Sean was our videographer and caught us all in action.....while he rented a board later. Once I started I never looked back! The kids were naturals and good old mom did pretty good too. Driving into Punta del Diablo we didn't realize that there was a National Holiday (Carnival)......duuuuu as we are in holiday mode always:) We certainly learned our lesson..... ... read more

San Sebastián CHILE On our way to Ushuaia in the province of Tierra del Fuego (earth of fire) you have to cross through the Chilean border and then back into Argentina (crazy really) The border crossing from Argentina to Chile is much different then crossing into our USA neighbours.....you park the car and take all your documents wait in one line then another, get a piece of paper and off you go. We waited for 2 hrs.........during our wait I cooked pasta and had a shower.....RVing rocks:) Tomorrow we will have reached our the most southern destination in Argentina, Ushuaia ( Fin del Mundo) end of the world !... read more

Dreams that come true....it's a story of Passion and Family! The name ZORZAL derives from a beautiful argentine bird who's sound is magical combined with the name of a famous Argentine tango dancer (passion and drive for his love of tango) We had a wonderful experience camping at Zorzal Winery in Tupungato, about 85km south of Mendoza. We arrived the evening on Feb.3.....the universe has totally been with us on the RV and this moment was no exception, it just so happens that tomorrow is their first day of harvesting their Sauvignon Blanc grapes ( and we get to see it). We had an extremely experiential education hanging out at the Bodega today. The family at Zorzal are extraordinary. Their passion and dedication to the quality of the process and end product of their delicious wines ... read more
