San Carlos de Bariloche

We arrived in Bariloche yesterday. It´s definitely a beautiful setting, on the edge of a lake surounded by mountains. It´s also definitely full of Argentinians on holiday.

We were supposed to start our 3 days of kayaking today. Unfortunately there was a bit of a mix up, and the local tour group here thought we were only arriving today, so no one met us at the hotel, and no one picked us up this morning. We spent about half a day sorting things out - i talked to 3 different people and got three different stories. Anyway, we are going to do a 2 day kayak trip starting tomorrow with just me and theresa and the guide (who is from America). We also had a half day trip today with a big group on a different lake, and the tour company is paying for our hotel tonight. We´ll have to talk to GAP adventures when we get back.

We´re trying to plan the part of the trip from the Lake District in the south to the Mendoza region where they make wine a bit further north. It seems quite complicated and it looks like we need to take 3 different buses over about 24 hours. We´ll see how that works out!
