Friday the 13th shall be remembered for a long time by James & Mariana!
First James got sick from some mystery virus or something. So couldn´t eat for most of the day.
We also couldn´t get out of a little place called Tres Lagos in the middle of nowwhere in Argentina. It was like Groundhog Day. We left at 9 in the morning and we only managed to get a lift back to the same camping place we stayed the night before, which was only 2 km away at 10pm!! Now that is moving! And James wasn´t impressed!
I think we also found that it was also the windiest place on earth. The wind didn´t stop blowing all day and seem to be at 100km/hr all day. We managed to stay in a sheltered camp site for the night but Tres Lagos is a typical windswept nothing exists there kind of town with Tumble-weed blowing down the middle of the gravel road! We made friends with the owners of the local petrol station "YPF" as it is the only place open in town & that is a warm place to shelter from the wind all day, so spent most of the day there. We try to hitch hike, as all the buses are booked out for 4 days up the legendary Ruta 40 (the endless gravel road, well for 600 km anyway!).
Still, looking up the weather seems to be warming up the next day & we get a lift to !
Luckily I have completely recovered, don´t worry mum!!
