[…] the tip of South America from their home in Alberta, and they’re telling us about it as they go. When they last checked in, they’d reached southern Argentina; now, they’re finding out just how far south they can […]

The writing got me hooked up. I believe it comes from experience, and the wisdom I fond in this spot (“warm blanket” metaphor) still reverberates in my mind the day after.
Thank you and continue doing what you do!

Hey Guys, I remember those winds very well…trying to sit on the side of the bike (holding the bike down) while riding down the road so the winds wouldn’t send me into those fences..with the guanacos and sheep drying in the barb wire. By now you should be getting closer to Rio Grande….with riding along the Ocean!
Hope that you had a chance to get up to the Perito Moreno Glacier….
Wishing you both a safe ride as you push for Ushuaia…don’t forget about the bakery in Trevellin.YUMMY.

I am really enjoying reading about your various agonies … and even a tiny tiny tiny bit envious … a great adventure to follow … thank you.

“I don’t know why we packed that stupid blanket, but it’s very difficult to abandon.”

Its not a towel, but –
“…it has great practical value – you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can’t see it, it can’t see you – daft as a bush, but very, very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.”
