Good representative samples of the species. Happy that I was able to get the 8...still got to get that damn buffalo though.

I hunted with Algar, a 3 hour drive north of Bariloche along the Andes foothills, there were no thorny thickets like you have shown. Except in drainage areas there were no trees. Knee to waist high grass was the norm. Fortunately there were no stickers or thorns, so crawl stalks were possible.
That's an awesome country.

Algar has a great reputation. Did you hunt buffalo there?

No, I took family and we hunted Stag. They have Buffalo on some properties NW of BA. The one we were on held in addition to Stag, Black buck, Fallow, Boar, and Pere David. Son got a Boar in addition to Stag. I tried for Pere David, but did not get in range. We took bows.

Almost managed to fit every American sterotype into one dish (just missing burgers, fried chicken and waffles).

In all seriousness, looks like an awesome trip!

Algar every morning served these sweet croissants toasted with ham and cheese inside. So good.

Every pizza was just a little "off" in terms of ingredients...still good. But not your usual ingredients.

The meats, empanada's were all good.

Their best meals were the pasta meals...oh man, they were delicious

They do a lot of pasta down there. To my recollection, they had a lot of Italian immigrants back in the day. On our trip a couple years ago, we were greeted with cold local beer and hot empanadas when we got to the parking lot at the airport. That's when we knew it was going to be a great trip LOL

They sure did have a lot of Italian immigrants in the 1940's for some reason. LoL. There's even an entire Italian town near where we hunted in Cordoba.
