errands

Jan. 30

today was a dreaded ¨get everything organized¨day. luckily it poured all day so we weren´t missing a nice day. we decided last night that we wanted to go to mendoza a day early. i was really happy about this decision not only because we´d heard such great things about mendoza, but now i will still have plenty to see when andrew comes to visit!

first thing in the morning, we go to the bus station and get bus tickets. then we spent the rest of the day getting an Argentine cellphone and other camping gear.

we packed up and left the hostel a bit later than we would have liked. it was a miracle we made it on our bus. the bus station was probably one of the CRAZIEST places i have ever been. it was seriously insane. we think our bus is at terminal 4, when in fact we find out our ticket says ¨4 a 14¨...meaning it could be anywhere from 4 to 14. how is that at all helpful? finally, after popping in and out of the terminal and checking the board we find our bus. which is Tramat...even though we bought our tickets with Andesbus.

off for a 20 hour bus ride! woohoo. luckily we got semicamas, so we can hopefully get a little sleep.
