Love the pics of Hotel Argentino! I stayed there on the way south and loved it so much I stayed there again on the way north for 3 nights. How I miss Graciela! By far my favorite local from my ride from Colorado, USA to TDF. She greeted me with a hug and a glass of wine. How nice that was after a long day in the saddle. I was sad though that she was not there on the way north. She had to go to BA for a month. From what I could get via my horrible spanish, she was in the hospital for surgery. Even tried to visit her in BA, but failed to find the correct hospital or my spanish was so bad, they had no idea whom I was searching for. Damn. I am just glad to see that she is doing ok.

BTW – nice blog.

Ted, Happy Xmas mate. I am there with you in spirit if not in body. How are the finances going, what is the cost of the trip IE fuel and accomodation and hostelling etc. If poss can you post info such as bought a couple of beers, cost me a quid or something?
Looking forward to your next post.

Er…um…Ted:
The party was Christmas. We were there – where were U?

Hope you aren’t disappointed when you get here for New Years and find most the others gone. Come by Hostel Freestyle – 40ppp – bike parking – as good as it gets (if they have a spot). I’ll be playing asado chef.
