January 7, 2013

Other Trip Notes:
Stay in Style
Travel in Style

The trip started off with a nice 45-minute nap from Cleveland to Chicago aboard a 6am flight. That was necessary given Liz & I hadn’t slept the night before. It put just enough fuel in the tank in order to start off the trip on the right foot:



A nice cold Polish beer: Tyskie

We ate a couple wrapped up danishes, and it would come to no surprise that we took a couple bags of chips for the road.


Copy Airlines International First Class Lounge (shared with Turkish Airlines).

Along the way we settled into first class seats with full-on menus to select from, ate lunch with La Martina family at their Polo estate, had multiple Argentinian steaks, sipped wines at multiple Chilean Vineyards, andhad an amazing feast at our friend’s wedding in Lima:


Wheels not quite up; champagne not quite down


A nice soup to start off a meal 35K feet above the ground


First Steak I ate on a plane


A small snack


Much needed Cheese and Meat platter


The first item that would ruin a shirt of mine in the air (it happened 3 times this trip)


Funny enough, this was the best steak I have had in the past year


South American Red Bull


Puerto Madero dessert in BA


Liz extremely excited about the menu, and especially the ice cream


The third shirt I destroyed from food in the air


A first course


Not-fully-popped-popped-corn. At La Mar in Santiago, Chile


Sipping wines in Santa Cruz, Chile


The Andes view while sipping on wine at TerraVina


View from the Italian Restaurant we had our engagement dinner at – yes, Italian in South America


Champagne Engagement


Wines and lunch at the gorgeous Viu Manent Vineyard


Thanksgiving Dinner at Bisquertt Family Vineyards


The dinner and wine pairings continue, but mysteriously the dessert disappeared before Liz could take a picture of it…


Lunch at El Mercado


An amazing spread of cheeses, meats, and whiskey


Let lunch begin


And a drink


And saddest of all, the final dinner
