La Cavern

Today Kruse went into a cave.

Woke up to mosquito. Lay awake for three hours. Got up, hostel owner couldn´t give me change for a 50 to pay my bill. So, decided to stay another night. Figured I was too late for one of the various day trips. But – was wrong. Got myself on a trip to Las Brujas Cavern (Witches´ Cavern). Long drive out there. Went into some caves. Very dark. Normal much-used jokes from guide.

Stopped at a place on the way back. Looked at fossils. Don´t like fossils. Looked at a waterfall. I like a good waterfall. And this was pretty good. Would post photos here right now, but USB has been either disabled or broken on this PC. And I don´t want to ask which, cause I took the cellotape off the port to get to it.

But – could climb behind waterfall. Waterfall came off rock in the shape of a persons face/head. 25m tall waterfall. Nice waterfall. And surrounded by toi-toi. Odd.

Supposedly, we´d pre-ordered meals. But, the amount of boring fossil-talk makes me think that during this time, meals were being cooked. Especialidad – chevito. Roast goat. So – have had my fill of goat for a while. Cerveza went down well though.

Think I might have got some sunburn. But got back to the hostel, and shower was pathetic. Unusable. And cold. So, some splashes of cold water – and smelly for another day.

Apologies for the frequent & wordy updates by the way.  Here in rural Argentina, there´s not much to do between doing stuff during day, and when it´s acceptable to start drinking.  It kind of seems to be acceptable anytime – but it also seems to go on until very late.  Every night.  Just a few quiet drinks seems to be happening 1 or 2am, even here.
