....Trekking Down Continued

'Back on a double decker bus, now crossing the Patagonia Plains via Route 40 aka a very very long dirt road.  The sun is setting and the view out the window reminds me of my long drives out to Hastings every year. Minus the corn.  I am on the final leg to the destination I have been planning to get to for the past 6 months, El Chalten, the trekers capital of the world, and a place that is supposed to be without big tourist crowds, mostly backpackers and enjoyers of the unpaved trail.  I spent the last two days hitchiking through the lake district of Patagonia.  One thing I can say is that the place is green and blue and very green and blue at that, no filter needed.  Argentines are one of the friendliest slash most conversational people I have met.  With every day they seem to grow on me more and more.  Well the suns glow has almost dissapearred over the horizon and the pirated copy of Anchorman 2 is done playing on the bus tv, my light is fading.  Ciao for now.'
