15th October - dusting off at Desert Tracks Rancho / by David Harrison

Bank Holiday Weekend here in Argentina - lots of places fully booked - for once we planned ahead - reserved the last room at 'Desert Tracks Rancho' in Las Grutas.  David phoned and spoke to Fernando.

"No Español. ¿Habla Inglés?" - "A little!" - "¿Cama matrimonial? Dos personas, Hoy, Una noche." - "Si, si. Where are you from?" - "Australia" - "Buenos!" 

We set ourselves up as Aussie travellers looking to roll out our Swags at Fernando's Rancho!

Turns out Fernando is a Travel Journalist who's been to Oz many times and ¿Hablas Inglés? much better than he let on!! No worries - we can do the full Ocker! And by the end of the night we've met Mum & Dad, been introduced to all the other Guests and invited out for Dinner and Dancing by a lively Argie couple!

Strewth! She'll be right!!

And so it was.  We had the best night in Argentina.  Sweet as! Good onya mate!!
