Malargüe [Argentina]

Malargüe is a beautiful little ski town at the foot of the Argentine Andes.  It's amazing how much it looks like it's right out of the US.  There is a classic main street with shops lining both sides.  Immediately off the main drag are residential areas with homes... real homes, homes with yards and fences and gardens.  Gone are the apartments and wrought-iron fences and window bars.  People are small-town friendly... It feels like home...

I find myself a quaint hostel run by a middle-age couple that treats the guests like part of the family.  We talk and eat until late at night, enjoying siesta the following afternoon.  I have a nice little patio to work on the bike and the views are stunning.
