The trip is continuing in a more relaxed, less frenetic manner here in Argentina. We are back in Buenos Aires until Wednesday. The 20 hour bus ride when smoothly- the buses in Argentina are better than any flight I've ever been on- the seats are huge and recline almost into a bed. We were served lunch, dinner, breakfast, and 2 snacks with coffee. I think the price worked out to approx. $60 for the 20 hour trip, which I think is reasonable all things considered.
After arriving into Baires on Saturday we went out on the river on a boat with Maxi's friends for the afternoon. Some of them went wakeboarding and sea-dooing but because I'm sick with a cold AGAIN, I decided it was best not to immerse myself in the freezing water. It's technically fall in Argentina, but the weather in Buenos Aires is still unseasonably warm. It's sunny and hot during the day, but cools off at bit at night. Unlike Bariloche. Which is really cold if I haven't mentioned. It snowed in the mountains really closeby where we were staying. Beautiful look at, but only from the window. I hadn't anticipated travelling in this climate and don't have my winter parka and boots with me. I probably don't have to mention that the truck doesn't have functioning heat either, being that it's 69 years old.
Yesterday we drove 3 hours outside the city to see Maxi's friend run in a car race which he never ended up running in. All was not lost because we ate a delicious asado and sat in the sun and I learned to drive the motorhome which we're taking back down south. Hoping for minimal breakdowns....
I still haven't booked my flight home but I'm planning for the week of June 1, so everyone start planning my party, haha. As much as I'm loving every bit of this trip, I miss EVERYONE tons and can't wait to see you all and have BBQs and funnel some beers and go camping and all that fun stuff!!
