well guys this is Welsh town number three for us we sure are on a roll we're

not even Welsh I know why are these people gonna have

To-infinitive

we're gonna have another one to visit next week - oh yeah poor San but yeah

this place is probably the most remote of them all the Dolavon Dolavon or in

Spanish Dolavon eleven um yeah it's even smaller than Gaiman yep we're

seeing lots of like red brick buildings they have these water mills along the

river so yeah we're very keen to check it out

gonna be a fun day another day trip we're just gonna walk around grab a

little bite to eat and see what kind of adventures we can find in this small

town Dolavon is a small town in the province of Chubut and it's name

translates to meadow on the river the town was officially founded in 1919 and

though various European nationality settled the area the majority were the

descendants of the first Welsh settlers who arrived in 1865 since we were

already on a roll visiting Welsh towns across Patagonia we decided to check

this one out as well okay so we just finished visiting the info centre in Dolavon and

got some ideas of what we can do around town today we did learn that most

restaurants are not open on a Monday or a Tuesday

today's a Monday so the restaurants we had plotted won't be an option today but

she told us about a berry de in a camping site that's a pretty cool spot

for food so that's where we're headed next

lunchtime so we are walking to the camping site it was just three blocks

away not too too far small little town we are so ready for food well guys we

made it to sabores the Nevada flavors of the valley it's the only restaurant

available we're not gonna be sampling any of the flavors because it's close

no sign of activity inside even can look into the kitchen yeah I mean the quest

for food continues we're not gonna give up we will find somewhere we will find

something I mean we saw a bar maybe like the bar we'll have a little snack yeah I

mean we're gonna grab a bite the idea really is to show the town of Dolavon so we got

needed a little bit of food in us and then life in Ruston is and then we'll

get going with the town town to her we walked up down and around and eventually

stumble upon this little eatery it was a local spot with mainly fast food on the

menu but at this point we weren't being choosy all right guys we found a place

that's open actual on glass and we got empanadas we've got ham and cheese baked

and grown beef fried you haven't had fried infant us in a while some fries

yeah and this place also just pizzas and other things but we've been having a lot

of petroleum so we're like well after that cheese a bit good so juicy inside

going on awesome super happy to found a place

all right time to try the ham and cheese once these are the what the hell horn oh

loaded with cheese look at that cheese bubbles I press down on it they're so

cute it is their specialty prefer today is more of a quick fast foodie meal yeah

all the restaurants the nice thing about this too is that it gives us more time

to see the town instead of spending spending the day having lunch

man those empanadas were good rides are tasty to you but there's some of the

best empanadas we've had on a trip so far they've been that good ingredients

yum yum hey bad well let me Oh certainly hit the spot it was so cheap - how much

like four dollars and seventy five cents so we got four empanadas fries and a

soda water absolutely go that's amazing and the quality was so good so if you

guys are wandering in town and you're looking for a place for it a good quick

lightning bolt the living bolt there you go

we are going to stop and admire the water wheels yes for your viewing

pleasure they're all along this walkway along the water where there's water

there's water water there's a water wheel let's see how they work

you want to say hello don't you after a quick lunch we walked back to the

tourist office in Dolavon where we had been told there's a small museum with an exhibit

about the old railway station but guess what this is Argentina so it was already

siesta time and the place was closed for the afternoon we really should know

better by now so it was back to random wandering

across town got a cool little Park here for children with dinosaurs and all

sorts of prehistoric creatures like a mammoth lots of dinosaur bones have been

found here in Patagonia there's a big dinosaur museum in Vallejo so it kind of

makes sense to be seeing lots of dinos with a bat friendly manner

so we've been wandering around for a bit what have you learned about the town so

far all right so this town's claim to fame is its mill it's flour mill which

was the first one to be built in the area and the mill was in operation until

1940 and now it's a museum and restaurant well let's be open on a

Monday thank you thank you but we're gonna walk on over there and see so this

is the restaurant we already knew the restaurant who would be closed but we

were hoping maybe the mill and the museum would be open that is not the

case we'll make use of our zoom lenses and give you guys a close-up a peek in

we are now waiting for the town's museums to open one thing we didn't

realize is that museum also closes for siesta time so we decided to go have

lunch and now that the lunch hour is over a lot of places have shut down till

4 or 5 o'clock what do we do we do not know what to do

so just walking around town we've friended some dogs I mean this isn't a

very big town to begin with so we retrace their steps over and over again

at one point we even walked into a little corner store to see if they had

any suggestions for too long tourists they gave us directions to Cafe and

Bakery but guess what that too was closed and that is exactly how we ended

up hanging out at a gas station yes a gas station we are at a gas station

riveting stuff guys it's the really the only thing that's open so we we followed

a couple leads to some cafes that were suggested as potentially open we either

couldn't find them or they were closed and there's a couple of bakeries that

may open again it like 4:35 but around that time we'll probably be at the

Museum and maybe thinking about heading back into town integer blue so this is

kind of turning into the non tourist guide to the city where we just show you

what what it's like on a day one not much is open not much is happening but

we've in the gas station we did find some really refreshing drinks - OH - OH

which is a citrus jink and this one which we liked even more is called

passive in Los Toros and it is a street food flavor definitely mellow and we

also picked up some alfajores so yeah brighten our day santoshi and neither

playable longer nor the meringue time yeah and apparently there's a triplet

three layers simple layers that's the nice looking alpha horn look

at the layers here's the dulce de leche I can't brain anyone's day know what

does improve my mood considerably sugar and a cold drink sugar in a cold drink

and hopefully a museum in about 15 or 20 minutes we are back to see the museum

hopefully it says they open at 4:00 and it's 4:15 and there's no one here we'll
