Córdoba to La Rioja

We drove about 300 miles northwest today to the town of La Rioja. it took us about six hours. The beginning of the drive was through farming country but eventually that changed to desert.

Along the way did get stopped by the police because we didn’t have our headlights on. There is a bit of a story which I will tell after we leave Argentina. Everything turned out fine.

At this point Duke is with the policeman in the little white house you can see in the rear view mirror.
We stopped multiple times to stretch.

In La Rioja we are staying at Casa Adela – Cabanas Resort. We have one Cabana with two bedrooms. It is perfect.

We had dinner at a restaurant called Zoita just around the corner from where we are staying. They eat dinner very late in Argentina. The restaurant didn’t even open until nine.
