10 Feb - Mendoza, Argentina

This is a very pretty city with tree lined streets and an alfresco dining culture. Our hostel is right in the middle of it all. Prices in the shops appear to be much the same as in NZ.

The other group arrived late this afternoon and we filled the evening Pizza, wine and beer and toddled off to bed for another 2am nap. A good local Malbec (as in Mendoza) at the restaurant was about $12 NZ .
