"I've, err, locked the keys in the boot"

So, after almost 10 months of impeccable, not at home to Mr Cock-up, behaviour I finally revert to type and lock the bloomin' car keys in the boot. I had to ring the car hire company to send the spare key, which was remarkably efficient as they put it on the next bus, and we had it for 3 o'clock the same afternoon. In the mean time as luck would have it we watched the UTD game, had lunch in the park and had time for a quick beer. Unfortunately this also meant we missed the planned 6 hour hike for that day; some people might even hint that I planned it(!)

We have had a great time touring round the various lakes and towns in this region of Patagonia and driving here is a real pleasure despite some dirt tracks that last for 50kms and the automatic speedometer that screeches as soon as I reach anywhere approaching a decent speed. We spent the weekend in San Martin de los Andes where we were able to rent an apartment for 6 (OK, a house) overlooking the lake.

Just a short one as some of the pics won't upload. Tomorrow we head back to BA, overnight, for our last 3 nights. Wow.
