Quilmes, Fernet, Wine, and Asado

Tom has made the ski posting for today so I thought we would pass on a little of the culture that we have experienced as well. Note the similarity to ski towns in the USA.....no women? Imagine the interesting happenings that come about with 15 dudes and 24 40 oz. beers, 4 bottles of fernet, 10 bottles of wine, and 20 pounds of meat.......

Here is a classic example of the wolf pack. In the background you can see the large grill that is heating up and in the foreground on the table is the main staple of the Argentinan diet...."MEAT!"
A close up of the meat pile and the beverage variety that can be found at nearly all Asados. Note also the sweet mustache that Dave is rocking.(center right red coat white hat big caterpillar) Lock all of your doors and hide your women and children the perrosdelpolvos are on the loose.

Check out the next Waylon and Willie rocking out at one of the various wineries in Mendoza. After a couple of fun days in the city of Mendoza checking out the vibe and buying a guitar Dave and I decided that it would be in our best interest to take a wine tour via bike. We were a traveling one man band....well two men but only one of them could play.
I guess there isn't much explanation needed here!
This last photo is the inside of the museum portion of the winery pictured above. The winery originally opened in 1890 and they have detailed their growth process all of the way up to the modern techniques used today.
