American in Norway goes to Argentina!

Now that I have the Birthday out of the way the Next BIG thing going on will be my trip to ARGENTINA..
IN. TWO. WEEKS. I can't believe how fast time is flying...
woo hoo... whos excited for me??

I have never been to Argentina...or even South America for that matter... it is going to be an adventure....

So now I need to get my butt in gear & learn a little something about Argentina... & what do I need to pack? I know it will be summer there...but I don't even have an itinerary! Do I need a converter? What do I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO BUY while I am there?

I am going to have to break down & call the company who is taking me & ask them what I need to expect... - do I need to have dresses for dinner or is this an all out WINE-O trip -better stick with pants?

The only thing I do know is that we will be heading to Mendoze....from Buenos Aires, in a little prop plane...NOT looking forward to THAT bit.

( why is it after you become a parent things like PROP planes...really seem to bother you?)

"Mendoza, two hours by plane from Buenos Aires, is the heart and soul of Argentina's wine country, where European settlers introduced the ancient craft of wine making in the 19th century. It's also the adventure tourism center of Argentina's Cuyo region, offering world-class hiking, biking, fishing, rafting, horseback riding and skiing, all within reasonable driving distance of downtown Mendoza. " WOO HOO.. (I said that already didn't I?)

So any of y'all been to Argentina & do you have any tips?

I have promised myself, that I WILL finish posting about our trip this summer ...before I head off for the next adventure... (I know, y'all are holding your breath...)
