 Chile boarder...Brrr it is chilli |
 back on the tarmac |

 hmm think this is still the road |
 Boarder guard wouldnt let us go past, made us go inside and just stared at up for hours |
 his colleges turned up a couple hours latter.. they dress smart even in the middle of nowhere |
 the boarder post the next morning - they eventually let us ride towards Argentina - had to promise to come back if there was too much snow |
 they gave us some fuel from their truck as we where very very low |
 10 minutes down the road and we are in Argentina and there was no snow |
 on the road somewhere |
 1000km+ ride today - how far do we have left? |
 Feels like Australia in may parts of Argentina |
