From Bariloche we spent about 4 hours trying to hitch-hike, but only made it 16 km out of town! We caught a public bus back to the bus terminal of Bariloche and bought tickets all the way up to Cordoba. It was hard to swallow the idea of getting on a 22 hour bus while we were still recovering from the 27 hour ride from Chalten, but we were happy to keep moving.
The bus from Bariloche to Cordoba was really nice... Anyone who has heard rumors about nice coach buses in south america, it is true! Felt like first class on a plane. we were able to sleep fairly well - at least the road was paved this time!
Now we are relaxing in Cordoba. Emanuel has been an amazing host, sharing his home with us and taking us around town! The night we arrived we were welcomed with a typical Argentinian asado with Emanuel´s family. His uncle was kind enough to throw some veggies on the parrilla (grill) for us in addition to the slabs of beef!
It has felt great to relax and feel at home here... We´re enjoying Emanuel´s great library (Netta has already read over 200 pages of The Hobbit), eating good food, and Netta gave me a haircut too!
Veggies??? In ARGENTINA?? Eat the Meat my son!
