Raining perros y gatos

This might get lost in translation, but I'm back in Mendoza and it's raining like cats and dogs. I arrived via bus around 8:30 p.m. and the river was roaring and the streets were flooded. My taxi had trouble getting to the hostel, but managed to arrive safely.

Unfortunately, the taxi driver and I had to haggle over the price a bit. It seems that because of the rain he felt he should be paid more. To be fair, they had pretty much closed the streets. We managed to agree on a price and everything worked out. And honestly, after debating with me in Spanish he deserved an extra couple of pesos.

I'm staying at Hostel Lao, where I stayed last week. Here's a link - http://www.laohostel.com. I've got a bunk for the next couple nights and then onto a double room.
