documentation of día de la madre

the view from ale's (my host grandmother) house...i live 4 blocks or so away

other grandparent's house! they live in luján, about a half hour outside of mendoza. this is facundo (with the wheelbarrow) and julían, my host bros, playing outside




my host grandfather (my dad's father) was sitting outside when we came into the backyard. he was wearing linen pants, toms, a button down shirt, vintage sunglasses, a sunhat, and was smoking a cigarette. can you get more argentino than that?




i didn't get a chance to take pictures while we were eating....due to the fact the food was so good! we had choripans, grilled sausages (chorizos) on bread (pan). get it? chori-pans. we had all kinds of toppings such as mayonnaise with garlic, fresh tomatoes, lettuce, and a salsa-like tomato sauce. there was plenty of fresh bread to go around, along with several bottles of wine, and we ate ice cream for dessert. it was a beautiful sunday to celebrate día de la madre!
