honeymoon dia 15 – el bolson

had a good, fresh cooked breakfast at the hostel and left town at 8:45. 4hrs more on a bus to bariloche where ash from the nearby erupting volcano partially cluttered the sky. then, a quick transfer and another 3hrs to el bolson where we’ll be for a few days.


did all the usual stuff – checking in with the tourism offices, local places of interest, and so forth. walked gravel roads for awhile and finally caught up with our birds that squeak like bike horns – the buff-necked ibis. funny creatures.



i was tired for some reason and highly unmotivated. carrie, being that loving wife of mine, let us go back to the hostel at a reasonable hour. she made one heck of a steak (in a pan!) and we dined like kings and queens. by the end of our trip, our ferritin levels should be sky high with all the steaks.

average costs:
hostel, queen sized bed!: 150 pesos ($33)
bottle of wine: 25 pesos ($5)

Just catching up on your posts -- don't think my other comment posted. We're loving the descriptions, pictures, and videos, especially the bus ride! Next best thing to being there.
