La Consulta

So yesterday we spent all day in Tunuyan, went back to Vida´s and packed up and then got a taxiflet (taxi that´s a pickup) and all rode in the back of it about 20 km to La Consulta, a town in the area. Adriana, the architect who designed the house that Vida´s building, hosted a big asado (barbecue) and let us stay with her a couple days. Today, Katie and I went to watch a documentary on natural building. Some of the techniques we´re doing at vida´s house are the same, some are different (the film is from El Bolson, in the northern part of patagonia, where i will go in a couple weeks). otherwise, we´re not doing anything...it´s pretty quiet here on sunday. everyday everything closes from 1pm to 5pm for the siesta (working on the far with vida, we took off from 1230 to 430, and didn´t always sleep because the flies were really bad in the bedroom, but sometimes i took a bit of a nap before heading for internet). So in 10 minutes when the supermarket opens, I think we will hunt for supplies for grilled cheese to go with Adriana´s tomatoes that are ripe in her garden. Tomorrow morning i will catch a bus to mendoza from here directly.
