Crossing the entire width of Argentina, from Buenos Aires to Mendoza, we begin by driving head on into a spectacular sunset.

Drunk in charge of a bike - good job the drivers there are understanding, although wobbling along after a few glasses was a highlight of our time in Mendoza.

Great minds think alike!
It seems to be a popular spot! Poor Donna:( I (Amy) feel your pain, getting migraines all the time. I paid the price the following day for drinking too much red! Oh well!

Funny to read - we loved it, too!
It is great to read that you all enjoyed CarninaE. We had about the same experience. People there were lovely, the wine (esp. the rose) was really nice - well and the idea of the combination of astology and wine is great. We went there about 3,5 years ago. It is good to hear that they keep going the same way. Enjoy your time in Valdivia - it's a great city.
