Colonos del Sur San Martin de los Andes

... what?). They have been inflicted with Abba, which curiously, seems to be in fashion again. A plethora of 80's and 70's too. It didn't seem to hurt too much until I was asked for something more dance like. I turned to The Prodigy and over the asado played Smack my ***** Up. It's either that or Leftfield. And that's were my dance music knowledge ends..1996. Sam rescued the eves, and found the modern stuff...who, well I don't know, but everyone else ...

Je continue dans la série des lacs! Me voici arrivé à San Martin de los Andes, par la fameuse Ruta de los Siete Lagos - car elle longe 7 lacs (he ouais!) - qui vaut en effet la peine: petite route de graviers traçant son chemin dans les forêt des Parcs Nationaux Nahuel Huapi et Lanin, en longeant de très beaux lacs et paysages montagneux. Je suis resté deux jours à San Martin ...

Wednesday Jan 21st START: 4592 km FROM: Ushuaia (ARG) TO: Punta Arenas (CHI) FINISH: 5161 km Without the rain and the clouds that followed us into Ushuaia, the same road back out is just magic. The road is dry and threads its way through the same scenery we saw 2 days ago, but it's a teen romance with sunshine exposing all the glorious bits we didn't see on the first date. We are both smiling wide in our helmets. It's worth saying that we are not the only people on the road to / from ...

... change the pattern, and redefine yourself." I reflect on today's poignant passages and reaffirm my daily practice of personal intentions. As they become part of my everyday experience, they will naturally shape and form the way I think, feel and act. I like the feeling of living a process. It feels in tune with the rhythms of nature. Harvey comes out of his guitar bubble and says that he has had a breakthrough in his study of music ...

... mountain silhouette. I hope the camera captures the calmness, beauty, and what I am feeling when I am in the moment enjoying the display of nature. I am reminded of today's intention, "everything flows". Today's road trip was on a gravel, bumpy road, then a paved smooth road, both with lots of twists and turns and dramatic scenery - like the path of life! Our path today led us to this place of peace, calmness, graciousness and warmth. There is also ...

... the paperwork. I seem to draw the short straw and end up driving (my first time on the wrong side i.e. on the right). This is probably not the place to try, but hey, how hard can it be? After lunch the four of us drive of in our very compact Chevrolet Corsa towards Puesto Canea and Lago Huechul and yet another volcano. The drive starts of easy enough on tarmac roads, but as 70% of Argentine roads are gravel (at best!) that soon ...

... white snow that pierce the fluffy blanket of cloud that covers the area. It really is a magic fairytale looking place. http://www.catedralaltapatagonia.com/ It is because of this setting that I spent most of the day on my ****, no not because I kept falling over, but because I was taking photos! The snowboarding itself was great fun and to me is still the greatest feeling in the world! Pure magic! After a rocky start on the board and not remembering a thing I ...

... Seeloewen im Hafen, die auf die Reste vom Fischmarkt warten, die groesste Attraktion. Hi** sehen wir zum **sten mal auch wied** and**e Touristen... ...ab** als wir in Pucon ankommen, sind wir wied** im Touristengetuemmel. Pucon ist ein wichtig** Urlaubsort in Chile, bekannt fu** seinen See und den naheliegenden Vulkan Villarrica (2840m), und wir beschliesen, den Vulkan zu besteigen (Warum?!) Am naechsten Tag regnet es wie v**rueckt und wir wissen nicht, ob wir am naechten ...

... than that weird black shingle. <br><br><br><br>Katie was starving so we found a little cafe overlooking the lake, chose a nice table right in the sun and ordered a few small dishes. <br><br>My waffle with ham &amp; cheese was good work, as was my cute little 'pancho' (hot dog), while Katie's tuna melt and chips also went down a treat. The litre each of 'Quilmes' beer put ...

Because of our resounding success hitching we tried to get up early and continue hitching to San Martin De Los Andes. This failed imediatly as we slept in till 11am but we got hitching and there were very few cars. We walked, and walked, and walked and there was nothing. We walked 10km with our heavy packs before we came to anything. We asked in the shop and they informed us there was nothing for a further 20km! More than we could handle. We kept ...
