the spa

I figured out how to upload pictures on my blog! haha can you tell?
Anyways, this past weekend was amazing! My favorite by far. Friday, we went to a Bodega (winery) after school. However, there is this little thing called Sando (hot wind) is Argentina which happens when it snows in the mountains. So on Friday the wind was so crazy that tumbleweeds trapped in our van and it took like about 45 minutes to move them so we could get out. I took a picture so you can see just how big these tumbleweeds were, but in case you can't tell, they are bigger than me.
On Saturday we did a 9km hike..that part wasn’t quite so fun. However, when we got to the top it was amazing. We were IN an actual cloud. We drank mate with our guide and then walked back down. At the bottom of the mountain we ate the best empanadas in the world! They were tomato, mozzarella, and basil. Yuuummm. Then we went to the spa. (:

It was in the middle of the mountains and had natural hot spring baths and a sauna. We mainly just hung out there and did mud baths all weekend. And I finally got my facial and massages. They were much needed.

Oh and at dinner on Saturday, Rue proposed to Rylie. It was sweet. Haha
