This is me and Brooke in Santiago having our first beer!!! salud!

to the right is brooke on Cerro Santa Lucia (hill in the heart of the city) that we climbed in Santiago!!

this is us at our first stop in mendoza! we had two flights and tried 10 different wines and then had a glass! mucho vino! i bought 12 bottles to ship back to the states!! very fun and every sip was a lesson and the history of mendoza is remarkable.. more so than napa, oh, and we met Argentinian friends!

this is our first night out in mendoza! we went to the Vines of Mendoza.. picture above, then went to a super market and bought cheese and wine and got ready. our hostel is awesome! we met some americans and others and they are the best! randomly, we went out to an irish pub and had two beers but they were the size of 40s. we had a great time. that photo was last night. today, we got up at 9am and went to breakfast and then to the bodegas (vineyards) and rode bikes and drank wine. the bikes were fun and it was in the upper 90s and we went about 10Ks out... so we had to hitch hike home! we will post photos of all of that! email us later.. or facebook. we love and miss you all!
