Ten hours to go...

The idea for this trip is an old one. In fact the original plan was far more ambitious, not only in terms of the number days, but this is another story. Anyway, the fact is that I am going from tomorrow December the 9th till January 21st which I hope it would be great.

Normally, I wouldn't plan much in a trip like this, but I would like to meet some friends along the journey, and I have to warn them in advance. So, this is the initial "Master Plan"
I am planing to meet Jose, my younger brother in Buenos Aires to travel around the North and West of Argentina.

Then, we will cross the Andes by bus and meet the new friend Milagros in Santiago de Chile. After a few days in Chile, we will head for the magic Machu Pichu in Peru and later join Miss Zaidy and spend New Year's Eve in a Peruvian beach, maybe going to the jungle, what are you planning Z?

From there I will go to Venezuela to get a deserved relax in Isla Margarita, Los Roques and Salto del Angel. This is how it looks in a map:


... yes it looks a bit scary. Far too many flights, but the distances are huge and the time precious.

Well, I think that is all for now, I only have to make the check list. Passport: checked, yellow fever jab: checked, blog for stupid situations:obviously checked,...out of the office email message: checked... I think that's all I need.

I won't take a laptop with me but I will update it the blog regularly. I am sure there are internet cafes everywhere, even in the middle of the jungle.

See you in Buenos Aires
