Translation of derailment in German

Once the rain stopped we continued to visit some other sites within the city, among them a popular Pagoda, which was not in the center. We took a cab there and enjoyed this beautiful place of worship.
In addition I felt were uncomfortable with a ten year old girl rowing our boat while we were sitting like stupid tourists there. I offered to row myself and took the girl's rudder. She was happy.
The road was a really horrible, but the lakes and the surrounding woods were colorful and impressive. We drove for two hours through the forest towards San Martin de los Andes, but decided to turn back before it got dark.
