Back in Salta, after returning from San Pedro, and have decided to delay the start of the cycling so that we can learn a bit of Spanish. Only knowing how to order a beer and then ask where the toilets are is a bit limiting, (although as they said in the Lion King ... that´s the circle of life). We didn´t find time to do it back in London (and it's obviously cheaper here), so we´ve enrolled at a local school, to be taught by Graciela and Carmen. It really is like being at school again because they´re quite strict and they keep giving us homework ... which we did drunk last night (Carmen not happy).
Going well so far but we're not convinced that knowing how to say 'the toothpaste is behind the talc, but on top of the perfume' will help us talk our way out of a tight situation on the road.
Hasta luego.

nice pics - if you see a great panorama then take a level series across overlapping by 23/33% (portrait or landscape mode) and we'll tell you how to combine them when you get back
good luck
