  • we've been busy little bees over here we have we are doing a boat trip on a lake

  • excursion we're going to Wow mm-hmm full day activity almost I'm really excited

  • because a couple days ago it was so windy here that's thinking like oh I

  • hope that the boats aren't canceled because they do canceled you cancel them

  • if the waters choppy yeah today's gorgeous just a light breeze not a cloud

  • in the sky perfect visibility and so yeah we couldn't have picked a better

  • day to go sailing yeah so we're heading out at 12 coming back around 7:00 or

  • 7:30 yeah and during the day we're gonna be

  • doing some hikes stopping for food and just enjoying cruising on a beautiful

  • lake lacar patagonia so that's the plan for today let's do it

  • all right so doing the math for you guys letting you know the price right away

  • these are the boat tickets big piece of paper in hand right there yeah

  • so this was eighteen hundred pesos per person which is in US dollars

  • forty-three US dollars yes forty-three US bucks for a seven or so hour

  • excursion with a guide so that's what we paid and then because we're going into a

  • national park we also have to pay that admission fee yeah because we are

  • foreigners it is three hundred and fifty pesos which is 850 and US dollars yeah

  • but if you're a national the race is much cheaper seem if you're a student or

  • you're retired or if you're from the province if you're from the if you're a

  • local or from the province you pay even less than Argentine national that's

  • typically how the pricing scheme works here and as you can see here it lets you

  • know that this tour is suspended on windy or rainy days

  • first stop food so lovely excursions are so good the waters have been calm

  • visibility it's been incredible I mean yeah it's pretty great so far we were

  • actually weren't on the boat that long about 15-20 minutes before I first

  • thought yeah yeah we're both really hungry

  • lunchtime lunchtime we're gettin Amelia Nathan Napolitano yeah is the milanesa

  • that comes with tomato sauce and cheese maybe some ham as well - ham and cheese

  • empanadas and one carne which is meat and we got them fried whole Freitas oh

  • nice so yeah we're looking forward to this this will be our lunch yeah I guess

  • there's a pull up with an hour an hour and a half stop here yeah there's a nice

  • little beach here along the lake lacar argentina so we're gonna go for a walk afterwards but

  • first you need you I think this is the most chill stop eventually we'll be

  • getting back on the boat and yeah isn't parking somewhere else where we're gonna

  • do like a proper height yeah I'm looking forward to that the most the milanese

  • has arrived Auggie's already been going to town I

  • don't waste any time ever so yeah we got the complete one with ham tomatoes

  • cheese oregano we've got this little sauce here

  • what do you think it's good but now that's to go along with this

  • yeah and they brought us bread would you be able to tried yet so two types of

  • empanada trap so this one over here is gonna be the ham and cheese look at all

  • the cheese oozing out then over here we have yeah I should mention they also

  • mark them like you've got little letters on top I'll show you this one that's not

  • quite yet yeah you have Jake a charm on K so that's ham and cheese and the meat

  • ones also emerges that you can tell what you're eating hmm such a creamy cheese

  • it's dominated by cheese there's just a little bit of ham I love the fried ones

  • the free test that's that those are the tasty oh yeah they're way more flavorful

  • when they've been fried in oil they're not the healthiest but also there are

  • other restaurants here by the beach so don't be fooled into thinking there's

  • only one walk around read the menus you've got options

  • so we just finished lunch yeah here in quila quina we did we are now

  • going yeah it was 500 something pesos right oh yes I should mention yeah a 20%

  • discount if you pay with cash and you're a part of this excursion right that was

  • nice so there is also a little trail system over here it's called sandy dough

  • with Ondina three different options yeah so you've got one that's three and a

  • half hours ten kilometers mm-hmm now this one's only this one's fifteen point

  • seven kilometers but seven hours so it must be more difficult terrine oh it

  • also gives a level of difficulty as well and then there's another one that's six

  • hours it's 14 kilometers so you're into trekking there's lots of options here

  • one thing to mention there's another boat that just comes here tequila kina
