Rio Grande, 0 Miles

Last nights reveling came with a hefty price tag. I felt very “tired” the next morning. The drinks I was being served were indescribable. Amie’s attempt was “Lysol and Coke.” Anyway, I crossed the line and was not doing well. Our room also happened to have the main duct to the furnace running right across the ceiling so it may have been in the 40s outside, it was about 80 in our room--more than warm.

Never the less, we had a very relaxing day catching up with Adam and Valerie and enjoying the hostel experience. We haven’t stayed in a hostel this trip so it was interesting being in one. There is a lot of forced socialization required and I wasn’t really in the mood so I laid low most of the day, having more than one nap I think.

Adam brought up the Navimag ferry that runs from Puerto Natales to Puerto Montt. I had heard of this but for some reason never really considered it until he mentioned it. If there is availability it would be ideal for us. You see, we’ve come down the atlantic coast on route 3, a very windy, boring, straight road. The other alternative route is Route 40, which is unpaved. This was to be our route north, but Amie’s gravelroadaphobia has nixed it. If we can get on the ferry, we would cruise for 3 days through the southern Chilean islands (where there are no roads) see some amazing nature, save 4 days riding, and miss having to back track the most monotonous days on our whole trip. I really hope we can get on that boat.

The resident hippy of the hostel offered to make pizza for everyone in the evening if they pitched in ingredients. We got some goodies from the store, as well as the two ingredients in “Choripan” or Sausage sandwiches (sausage and bread). The pizza dough was made by hand which was impressive, and it was pretty good, but the rate of production and the amount of people grabbing for slices had me sneaking out the back door towards the gas station for a funny burger. That’s the name of it. It’s a hamburger with all the normal stuff plus a fried egg. Not bad for a gas station. I will also note it was about 11pm on a Sunday night and there were quite a few families “dining” there with me.
