Las Termas de Fiambalá
Fiambalá lived up to the hype. It was a holiday weekend and a total scene.
The hot springs are nestled cliff-side at the end of a steep road and are sight to see themselves. A dozen or so waterfall-filled pools rise up the mountain and vary in temperature from 25°C to 45°C.
Because of “La Dia del Niño,” we had to share the springs with a hundred or more mate-sipping parilla-cooking Argentines. It was awesome.
Unfortunately, we failed to capture our fun weekend on film. We were too busy soaking and relaxing.
And, we still haven’t fully embraced a mate habit, but it might happen if we stay much longer.

hmm, did I miss the definition of mate? I suppose I could google it, but asking you instead gives me an excuse to say hello and mention how much we miss you guys!
Hola, Rudy! We miss you guys too!
Mate is THE national obsession here… well, there’s that futbol thing too.
