Why climb with Berg Adventures

Aconcagua Expedition Dispatch

January 27, 2011 – A Farewell Lunch at the Vineyard

Before the climbers went home, we had one final group lunch—an outdoor barbeque at one of Mendoza’s lovely vineyards. The Tuesday barbeque was excellent and the wines were as well. It was a beautiful, sunny day and everyone was in great spirits. Being with Mariela, who is quite the wine expert, greatly added to our appreciation of the whole vineyard experience, including our appreciation for the amount of work that goes into each bottle of wine.

We sadly took Stuart and Maggie directly to the airport from the vineyard so that they could catch their flights home. We’re hoping their arrival home wasn’t too cold or snowy after leaving such great weather in Mendoza! Todd returned to Arizona where Heather is eager to have him back and where he will be back to his job as a firefighter on Thursday.

Thanks to everyone for a great trip!

Cheers to a great trip!
