Taylor's Trip

[Sunday march 17th]
My sister Taylor went on a school trip to Argentina and just arrived. Here's the latest news!

I am in Mendoza, It is so beautiful! The plane trip here was amazing, despite the 12 hour ride. Being in another country is great, the culture is so different and laid back. The drivers are scary! Today we took a bus from Mendoza to Uspallata with a Geologist from Buenos Aires who specializes in the Andes. I can barely comprehend how incredibly enormous the mountains we have seen are, and we have´t even reached the snow capped Andes yet! They automatically serve wine here every time you sit down, and boy is it strong, it tastes like nail polish remover. But, I try to be polite. I just got back from walking around with some students around town. Their food places don´t even open until 8 or 9, and right now it is so busy out! Everyone inlcuding their kids are out right now having a good time. There are so many shops all around and people are very kind. Well, I must go to bed now. We have a long day tomorrow hiking around. We are headed for San Jose I believe it is. I hope you guys are doing well! I love you all!
