Advance Party Arrives in Mendoza


Late today Mendoza time (Okanagan Valley +5), Edmond, John, Jerry, Glenn and Don arrived in a balmy 34C in Mendoza, Argentina. The rest of the team will arrive by 20th December. Travelling down to Mendoza can be via various routes, these guys arrived via Vancouver, Mexico and Santiago , a mixture of JAL and Lan Chile airlines. The bagage limit for the route was 2 x 23kg for each passenger, everyone left with exactly 46kg! Not a gram to spare.
But we're safely here and planning some paragliding tomorrow as a treat, right by the city. Here's hoping you're all enjoying shovelling the snow, we're just off for an ice cream!
