Argentina: Another Wasted Day

My excuse for the long delay between posts is that we had a great big gringo reunion in Cartagena where we all dressed up as pirates and then cruised around on an old pirate ship for a while. More on that later.....
Mendoza
Day Seven
Our second to last day in Argentina was Good Friday so almost everything was closed. We thought we would catch a bus to some hot springs, but ended up missing the bus. On our way back to the hotel we found a little tiny shop that was open and bought salami, cheese, bread and wine (you know, the essentials) and spent the day by the little pool at our hotel. Just like the hot springs, but much more private AND we didn't have to sit on a bus for two hours.
That night we went out to Mendoza's restaurant filled streets thinking we would hop from one place to the next for appetizers and drinks, but since we'd spent the day eating salami and cheese sandwiches we couldn't eat anymore. So we spent the night people watching while we sat over one half eaten taco.
