13th August 2012 We managed to get to our Jeep trip just in time as we had to wait for our laundry to be returned. In our group was 4 Belgium's, 3 guys, Bram, Thomas, Kyle (unsure of his real name, but looks like American Kyle) and a Girl called Charlotte. We began our 3 day circuit by heading to Cementerio de Trenes a train cementary. There were loads of old rusting decommissioned steam trains from the 1800s. We climbed all over them to get the best shots. We...
