It´s impossible to make a good cup of mate. We´ve tried several methods but invariably we end up sucking burning tea leaves through a straw straight to our throat. It´s ridiculous but we´ll keep trying.
We explored Mendoza today and finally figured out why everything was closed: it´s Flag Day. We walked about 10 miles through town (round trip) to a HUGE park and up a hill to get a hazy view of the Andes and town. We think it is hazy because too many people are cooking meat.
Tired feet and a grocery store = dinner in tonight. Bueno! This hostel is one of the best hostel´s we´ve ever been in. (Hostel Lao in Mendoza.)
We´re trying to figure out where to go next because of limited bus rides and farmer strikes. It makes things more interesting with a farmer´s strike. It sounds like they are striking for a good reason--unlike the teacher´s union in Denver. Hee hee.
