A masseur wearing gloves sounds pretty strange to me. I mean, part of the reason I go for a massage is the human touch. And wearing gloves during an HE? The logic escapes me. What next, a Hazmat suit?!
@Rod Hagen I loved Argentina. I was having a glass of Malbec and a Cuban cigar in a Buenos Aires hotel on about day #4 and told my partner “go home, sell the furniture and the house and meet me back here…I’m not leaving”. Yes I enjoyed it.
Yes to the falls, I was there 3 days and 2 nights. I’ve heard both sides are worth it, I didn’t get a chance to try that.
I’m a carnivore, so all the beef - sometimes in interesting cuts we don’t see here at home - was amazing/delicious. Cheese appetizer with chorizo, great. I walked out of my many starred hotel on morning before hotel buffet breakfast, and found a hole-in-the-hole place selling empanadas. An assorted bag full of those became breakfast back in the room with room service coffee.
I’ve heard good things about the Mendoza area and the Malbec vineyards there…it’s not a quickie trip though. I regret not making time for it.
