Having explored Mendoza city for a few days and sampled its diverse culture and nightlife, a relaxing break in the mountains was in order. ´Ah yes. A rural retreat where we can be at one with all the nature and those great Andes over there while at the same time getting a chance to catch up on all our emails and stuff´, we thought. ´How perfect´. Then we got there and found that, not only was there no internet, there was naff all else to do but go up mountains. So that´s what we did. Here are some of the lovely picturesque Andean vistas. After a long day of trekking around at three and a half thousand meters with mild altitude sickness, what better way to wind down than in front of a roaring log fire. Turned out there was no other way since it was approx. minus 2 degrees outside and the cabin had no central heating. Maybe we´re not cut out for this country life after all...
