Well, I finished a 2nd Middle Eastern military contract and wanted to celebrate. So last year on my first one, I went around the world in 21 days. This time I figured I needed to cross the Equator.
Did a serious R&R in Buenos Aires and Mendoza, Argentina. It was 2 weeks of (50? bottles of Malbec wine) Tango, Flamenco, Rafting and an incredible Zip Line that went 4,000 feet (single run) across the Mendoza River on the east flank of the Andes Mountains. Saw Condors and Huanocos(?) an Alpaca/Llama sort of creature that has not been domesticated.
And it is true, the water DOES go down the drain Anti-clockwise!!!!

Uhhh... no, I am NOT a slave to fashion, color coordination or barbershops!

Hello John;
Looks and sounds like you had a nice trip. Saw the zipline thing on the History Channel, I think, when Dennis Anderson (Gravedigger) had his show. Looks like fun.

Have a good one;
Matt
