Day 97
Esquel is the last place the public buses go to on the way south through western Argentina. Figuring out where to go next wouldn't be easy, so Jenny and I dedicated the day to trying to figure out what to do next. There appeared to be four options:

Day 96
I spent this afternoon uploading photos. The Internet is really slow here, but I have no other choice if I want to keep my site up-to-date. I also chatted with several friends online, which was a nice way to start the new year (I know, a day late).

New Years Day has never been a productive one for me, and this year was no different. Most of the afternoon, I just slept and watched some movies with people in my hostel. I didn't feel like doing anything else, but still, I was ready to leave town and… Read More »

Day 90
The last few days, I have been getting sick of my hostel. It's run by a German family, and everything is so strict, it's almost impossible to relax. There are signs absolutely everywhere telling you what you should and should not do. "Always wash your dishes right after eating."… Read More »

Day 89
Sam, Kim, and I had all been sitting around, acting really lazy, and eating a lot of food for the last few days. We all wanted to get out and do something now that Christmas was over and the buses were back running in full force. A nice, long… Read More »

Day 88
Seeing that it was Christmas, not much was going on today. A few restaurants were open, but pretty much everything else was closed. I didn't have much to do, so I took a walk along the beach to the other side of town. A few people… Read More »
