Villa Maria

21/05/2010

We travelled 510km on tar road today… towards Buenos Aires. Being on a busy high way, facing lots of traffic and road blocks we are already missing  the remote, rural, mountains and dirt roads from the previous weeks!

 We are now bout 500km from Buenos Aires.

 We got the first traffic fine today, at a ‘Policia roadblock’ … Andre being without a helmet (‘temporary’). After a long debate, no English, he received a ‘pink slip’…I am sure he will pay once back in SA. (Wearing a helmet on a bike is only compulsory on highways).

The plan is that we will take our bikes to be ‘palette’ed’ on Saturday morning. Spend the night in BA, and depart for SA on Sunday evening. Andre will stay few days extra to assist with the containerization and custom paperwork. Monday & Tuesday (24&25May) are public holidays in Argentina, as they will celebrate their 200 year existence.
