San Antonio de Areco, Argentina
This small town with around 25,000 inhabitants impresses with its charm. We really liked the artistically carved front doors with their filigree grilles, as well as the weathered facades with their pastel colors. The well-preserved Baroque church was very impressive.
Many art objects in various small parks inspires visitors. We took away many positive impressions from this visit to the city.

Aurora Austral - Husky Farm
Our visit with Konrad and Emilie and their 36 huskies will remain unforgettable for us. After spending the night on their premises, we were ready as agreed at eight o'clock for the husky training drive and kennel visit adventure.
Konrad explained a few basic facts about the various sled dog breeds beforehand. As we didn't want to be out too late with the team in too warm weather, they started soon with the preparations.
Konrad informed us about training, feeding, breeding and his experiences with dogs. He also told us that the dogs just want to run. They forget everything else.

Paso Pehuenche - Argentina to Chile
The drive over the Paso Pehuenche was interesting and varied. Tarred roads with many crash barriers, which were damaged or torn away by falling rocks or debris. Gauchos on horseback herding herds with their dogs, lonely farmsteads, magnificent Andean landscape with crystal clear, deep blue lakes. We were thrilled.
Argentina: Zonda Almacen & Uco Valley

See and be seen
In Gualeguaychú, we re-entered Argentina from Uruguay.
We noticed that, especially in the late afternoon and late into the evening, local families spend hours driving around the Rambla (promenade) in their often old or very old cars.
