Day 186-187 This morning we organised our Australia trip and booked our flights and campervan around OZ. We said goodbye to Steve and then got a taxi to the airport. 3 hour flight to Lima, a 5 hour flight to Sao Paulo, a 1 hour bus to the bus terminal a 4.5 hour bus to Ubatuba and then a final 2 hour bus to Paraty.

Day 95 We arrived late at night in Bariloche, met our French cell mates….sorry room mates and went out for dinner at a local bar Day 96 We were up early to have breakfast and on a bus to Cerro Cathedral ski resort.
