Back in the land of bife de chorizo (steak) and medialunas (croissants)!
We crossed over from Puerto Varas in Chile to Barlioche in Argentina by bus. Thankfully, this crossing is only a few hours long (not like the 17 hour crossing we took to get in to Chile), and is very scenic.
Bariloche is a small outdoor adventure (skiing in the Winter, rafting a trekking in the Summer) town, with a really nice vibe. MP was feeling a bit pregnant, so I did the Circuit Chico bike ride by myself. It's a beautiful 25km hour bike ride which goes via lakes, lagoons, beaches, and lots of hills (it took my about 5 hours, including stops for swimming, eating, and a beer).
