Hasta La Vista Mendoza

As much as Mendoza found a way into our hearts over the twenty-one days we spent there, tourists and Mendocinos alike have expounded on the beauty and joyfulness of Córdoba, 688 kilometers to the northeast.

And so this morning we hopped onto an 8:00 AM bus headed toward our next Argentine adventure in Córdoba. We initially considered flying, but on our ride from Santiago to Mendoza, we found the Argentine bus system to be both comfortable and efficient. Add in the convenient downtown to downtown route and 80% saving over airfare pricing and the decision to bus it was a no-brainer.

Sadly, because we're heading east, away from the Andes, the vistas are considerably less interesting than our last bus ride, but we have plenty of books on our Kindles, movies on the laptop and blogs to write to entertain us.

As we left Mendoza this morning we both felt this is not farewell, but rather until we meet again.Leggi altro
