Thursday 16 February Bariloche
Usual sort of drive day plus a border crossing back into Argentina. The border passport stamping went very well and the Argentines didn’t even put the dog through the truck. Reached camp about 6pm, upon which about half a dozen upgraded to move into a large dorm in the lodge, which gets them into the lounge. We have access to power and internet so we are happy in the tent for now. Forecast is rain so the available activities might not take place. There is pressure to get into Maccas for the first time since Buenos Aires. Just going to have a rest after a long day tonight and get the blogs up.
Bariloche is a lot larger than we expected. The city is situated next to one of the large lakes in the district. In winter it is a ski destination, summer is for hiking, fishing, cycling, paragliding and a whole assortment of outdoor activities. There is a grey ash covering about an inch deep that is the fall out of the Chilean volcano that erupted in June last year.
