Mendoza is known for their wine production, and so we went on a winery tour the other day. We covered a couple wineries (one province called Maipu - yes, I, too giggled like a little girl), & an olive oil farm. Twas a little boring for me, cos I don't appreciate wine.. So the olive oil farm was the star of the show. Tasting platters of extra-virgin (giggles) olive oil, some flavour infused, pastes, raisins, & olives. My favorite was the sundried tomato on bread with extra-virgin basil infuse.
Unfortunately, i didn't get to take any pics on the iTouch.

Nothing to do on Sunday, & was gonna do hotsprings - hopefully we can still do it in Bolivia/Peru.

Today we went horseriding - scariest and fuxking exciting moment when the horse is gallopping!!
The tour ended with perfect empanadas, amaazing parilla (grill meats), & dessert with deuce de leche (milk caramel).
