Bariloche – The Patagonia we Dreamed

The great Francisco P. Moreno , his life dedicated to the creation and preservation of the Region, and its Natural wonders.- Museum at Civic Center

All Buses in Chile and Argentina have the system, you arrive at the bus 30 minutes prior, deliver your luggage on the side, and also at arrival everyone crowds the area to receive them as well. Here Cata International buses, and the Meachams in the crowd. 🙂

“In Bariloche , there is so much to do, you can come back tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day. Bariloche , I want to be there! – Street Bilboard.

Our Chevy to the Levy… Renting a car is very convenient , allow to enjoy 7 lakes route, and Valle de Angostura in one day , very safe and the views are outstanding a treasure to keep in our hearts.

San Bernardo Dogs are the attraction for tourists, and money makers for the owners who take pictures of you for a charge.

Argentinian like very much their Ice cream, when in Rome… have a Gelato! maybe is their Italian heritage 🙂 D-licious!
Our F8 trip is already in its 19th Week and the countdown Will start soon. My family and I are spending 4 Nights in San Carlos de Bariloche and the hotel is Costa del Nahuel , everything in Argentina has been handcrafted by my network travel partners – Designer Trips , Matias and Lucas , and everything has been perfect – length in each place and lodging accordingly to our budget. We are experience it to plan it in the future for you . 🙂 exciting !
We entered Argentina by bus and I feel good and confident that the time they took in the border, frontier, with bus and luggage manually checked, probably avoid further problems . We saw several police bording the bus. We, later, exited the bus for X-raying all the luggage. After which, we were on our way again. The advatanges of riding by bus are the amazing views , the forced time to sleep and read, and the affordability when you are a party of 4. After many buses with different carriers, I must say that our Favorite attendant, Patricia (Cata International) was outstanding and attentive. A bonus was that the meals on this route, Mendoza -Barcelona, where awesome – all full meals, breakfast and snack. The excitement to see the Andes mountain range and spot the white tips in the summer “mode” was like a JACKPOT. The word, “el niño”, is always discussed to explained the drastic weather changes including: dry rivers , unusually hot or cold, as well as other phenomena. In any case, we are fascinated with the Patagonia landscapes , the pristine lakes , the easy going and safe streets , the amazing blend of cultures in the hotels architecture with structures resembling Switzerland The healthy air and very low humidity breathed in is incredible.
We are getting used to sweets and other non-traditional items for breakfast instead of the eggs , ham or sausages. A good “asado” or Italian pasta for lunch is the norm with whatever is leftover for dinner. Argentina was at the top of the list for my husband and so far the first 5 days in this land did not disappoint a bit!
Stay tune for next week where we will go to Perito Moreno Glacier and first hand feel the glaciers .
