Having set the good mood by the rangers we headed to San Juan to pick up
some stuff left there by our travel buddy Gail, onya mate really
appreciated the delivery.
Not wanting to stay in the big city we took a shortcut road, only 10 km
into it we discovered the road was closed for reconstruction so no go,
we then attempted to take another road which was boney as hell, we let
the tires down to help but it was loose and deep then boney and rocky,
Mrs.G then said turn right.
Hmmmm, looking up the turn right it was apparent nothing had been up
there for quite some time and the rain had destroyed the road turning
into a rock climbing fest for a suitable rock crawler 4x4, not two up on
an adventure bike, admitting defeat we turned around and took another
back road, although it had also been hammered by the rains it was
passable so we were on a win.
Backing tracking a bit up the main drag we turned off into a sweet wee
valley and stinking hot again again with the temp gauge bumping 45
degrees.
Occasionally we would get a smooth section in the middle of nowhere

This time the road was in less than ideal shape but was still a road and
mostly tar sealed, an uneventful ride saw us get into Barreal so we
decided to stop there, finding accommodation with a shower was
preferable.
It was proving to be difficult with all the pousadas closed for siesta
(seriously) then we met a young couple in the tourist center, they heard
us wanting to find somewhere to stay and told us where they were
staying….wifi, parking, quiet, price +/- ok ….and a swimming pool, sold
to the Kiwis!!!
Getting set up we through the togs on and B lined it to the pool …. with
no camera … ya shitting me, the scenery was quite good.
Guys you will just have to imagine nice bulbous boobies, sorry for not
taking the camera although Ellen did have the tab and managed to snipe
off one shot of some hot product, yes a KTM coloured chair.

It was so nice a place so we decided to stay one more night, wine, views as asado, boobies … life was good.
A slight contrast from the night before
