Right now we are in Puerto Puyehue. We are staying at a hostel in their half finished attic where we have excellent internet connection :)

The Carretera Austral is wonderful and in very good condition…so far.

That’s all for now, next time we’ll try to post a bit  more content.

The Dakar Rally 2010 is at stage 6 now and it’s real fun to follow. Yesterday we went to a control point to look at the competitors race by. We saw to swedish contestants; Annie Seel (Nr.76) and Thomas Berglund (Nr.23). It was very impressive to see the motorbikes and other vehicles up close.

We’ve also spent some time in the desert playing with our own bikes…a very fun thing to do. There is no end to how much sand and gravel there is to ride here. We love it!

We got the opportunity to borrow a cabin in a place called “La Ballena”. We took a bus from Viña del Mar and arrived 1 1/2 hours later to a very nice cabin with a beautiful view of the ocean.

We ended up spending most of the week watching “How I met your mother”. Once in a while we took a break and took a walk…to the shop to buy some snacks and then continue to watch more awsome episodes of “How I met your mother”. It was…Legend…wait for it…dary!

Ok…to be honest, we took a longer break and walked on the beach one day and took some nice pictures too :) No swimming though…the water was freezing.

Regarding our bikes; According to plan they should have arrived to Valparaiso yesterday. Today they are (hopefully) being unloded from the cargo ship. Tomorrow (monday) we will know if everything is ok and hopefully get our bikes.

And then awaits a 1300 km (800 miles) long journey to Antofagasta where we want to spend christmas with family and friends. The prospect of sitting at least 10 hours a day on our bikes riding highways encourages more than not…we really really miss our bikes!
