San Miguel de Tucuman to Cafayate
We arrived in Tucuman at 10:00 AM (after 13 hours on the bus) and left at noon (a further 5 1/2 hours)for Cafayate. Had to bribe the luggage man to get the bike aboard (Francisco, another passenger who speaks english said, "It's how it works in this country.").
After driving through mountains and cloud forest (jungle) we arrived in Cafayate. The next luggaage man caused a fuss but we just walked away, dragging 50-60 pounds of gear each, as quickly as possible.
We stayed at the luxurious Hotel Emperador.

Cafayate
We spent the day sightseeing, tasting the local food (goat stew) and getting provisions for our ride into the Quebrada Y Concha (Canyon of the Seashells).
