The whole 16hour (2 hours ahead of schedule) trip down from Puerto Madryn there isn´t much else to look at but pampa, so you can´t help but take in the towns when you pass through them. We were coming into a town this morning with half constructed roads and muck everywhere so all I could think of was what an utter hole this is. Seconds later our bus flys past a “Bienvenieda Rio Gallegos” (Welcome to Rio Gallegos) sign. This is our stop off point before heading onto to Ushuaia further south. We´re stuck here until tomorrow morning when our bus leaves for Ushuaia. There´s nothing but misery and damp here.
We visited the Archaelogical Museum. Nothing further to say on that.
We´re staying in the Elara hostel (don´t recommend this place at all if you´re staying for more than 24 hours) about a 10 minute walk from the bus station. 2 bunk beds and a single squashed into a tiny bedroom. Our Portuguese room mate Sara is travelling along the exact same route as us for a while.
It´s not all bad though. We found an internet cafe and have settled in for the rest of the afternoon. ´99 Red Balloons´just came on the radio. If you know Lisa you´ll know she can´t even type with the excitement right now. I think they´re charts are still in the 80s. Imagine if Level 42 were touring. Awesome.
