Curantos again

Well, we’re in El Chalten, about to catch the bus to Calafate then fly to Buenos tonight. This town is right on the edge of the Andes with glaciars around and is known for some really good trekking. Sweet place. I can’t believe that so far there has been no rock climbing on the faces behind the town. When we came down from yesterdays hike we spotted a restaurant with ‘Hoy, curantos’ so supper was chosen. We got to see the preparation and all. This looks easy to do. Really enjoyed the meal, they basically kept putting meat on your plate until you said stop.
Well, starting tonight, finally warm weather, I just can’t see it being any better than what we’ve been doing, just additionally interesting.

    Well, I have to admit to having been a bad friend, and not having much spare time between school, renovations, and house hunting stress, to stay caught up on your lovely blog Miranda. Being home with a sick kid today though, I’ve had a lovely time reading through and catching up.

    But, I’d better catch you up as well… the house. Finally, finally, it is all signed, sealed and delivered. Our possession date is May 16, and the kids and I are hoping to move May 30. It’s a really run down little place, but has a lot of potential, and you can see Marc’s eyes gleam with excitement when he talks about all the stuff he’s going to tear out and redo. About 1000 sq ft, with a big yard, and a big double garage, it’s in a neat little neighborhood named, of all things, Evansdale. You may be familiar with the area, since it’s not horribly far from your place as far as cities go. the address is 15219 93 St. Just imagine, hardly anything in cab fare if we decide to have a few margaritas with supper one night. I can’t wait!

    I hope you and Michael are thoroughly enjoying your trip. As always, I’m so jealous. But, at least technology has come along to the point it has, where you can so easily share the excitement and wonder with us.

    Yay! What a great neighborhood to live in! And so close to my end of the woods! I can’t wait to see it.
