Making moves.. .Bariloche Argentina & Santiago, Chile

So we were lucky enough to spend a week at a ski resort in Bariloche, Argentina. My dad and Lisa hooked us up with some points on their time share. It was a very nice break after sleeping in our tent for around 40 days in Patagonia. After our week of luxury in Bariloche we went to Santiago, Chile.

This is the view from the top of the ski resort Cerro Catedral.

Bariloche is in the lake district of Argentina, beautiful scenery as far as you could see.
Nectar!

This is a warming hut/cafe that we came across on our hike up the ski hill. It was built into and under this giant boulder. It looks kinda sketchy but super awesome at the same time.

This is a 4 hour hike from where we stayed and is one of the most popular climbing areas in Argentina. There was a laid back climbers refugio at the top and lots of cliffs and spires. 




We went from Bariloche to Osorno, Chile and got stranded there for a night because all of the buses were full. We had to wait for the next night bus to take us to Santiago and when we arrived we found this beautiful hostel overlooking the Plaza Del Armas.



This is one of our dinners overlooking the plaza and catching the sunset. This dinner consisted of 5 avocados and a bowl of lentils..... the joy of budget traveling.
Plaza Del Armas.

Like all good cities there was nice street art and...

Good street food, this is a local drink called huesillo. It's a mix of peach juice and oats, Surprisingly good!

Another view of downtown Santiago, if there wasn't so much polution you could see alot more.....buildings.
And here is Chile thanking us for our visit at the border town of Colchane. Chao Chile, hola Bolivia!
