We finally made it across the border! Back in Mendoza, we decided to rent a moto and explore the city like bad asses. This time we actually peaked Cerro de la Gloria, but (of course) had to go back to the downhill mountain biker track because it too is "bad ass." So bad ass even, that Aaron "thrung" me off the moto heading up the rocky dirt path! Luckily, I survived! Of course before heading out of town, we returned to the most amazing feria in Plaza Independencia for a few more goodies!
We couldn't wait to get back to Tucumán to decompress and finally dump the snowboarding bag and all the extra weight we were travelling with. We enjoyed our days with family and friends: Had an asado with the fam at El Cadillal, a parillada with the gang in San Javier, escaped for a quick day trip with Babi to Las Termas de Rio Hondo, and made it back in town just in time for her birthday!
Once rejuvinated and re-packed, we were ready to set out to the north!!
