10 facts from the last days...

It seems I have some time now while the boarder doesn´t open.. I will try to resume some facts of the last days:

1) We've made 600Km in the last 3 days! Yep, we have to increase the average in order to get to Asuncion on time! :S
2) Problems we had already:
- our moto: the screw that is holding the moto exhaust disapeard (we listened the noise of it falling in the floor but never found it again..) FIXED; no battery, no fuel indicator
. Pablo's moto: hole in the front tyre FIXED; broke the exhaust screw, broken speed/Km's indicator
- Sancho & Justyna moto: broken chain FIXED
3) Altitude: We are always above the 3.000m and in the last two days around 4.000m high. It's kind of cold (this morning -13º!) but gets better around luch time. Always sunny!
4) Injuries: nothing so far! But Sancho is now with a conjunctivitis (hard to drive..)
5) Top Speed: 70Km (yesterday and going down with wind from behind, we never managed to reach it again..); Average speed: 35Km/h (perhaps a little higher yesterday, with no mountains)
6) Animals: a lot! and always near the road! Lamas, Alpacas, dogs, dunkies, pigs, chikens, horses... concentration is always high ;)
7) Wake up: 5:30 a.m. (normally at bed around 22h)
8) Average € we spend to sleep: 3 eur! (hotels that are the state of the art! very fashion... eheh)
9) Average of hours driving per day: I would say around 7 h (because there is always something to fix!! eheh)
10) Team motivation: VERY HIIGGGGGGGH! :D

"see you" tomorrow (hopefully in Bolivia!)

Thanks for all your comments!! it keeps the motivation always "at full speed"! ;)

beijinhos e abracinhos!
Lena & Gonçalo

  3. Parece que las Aduanas por esos lares, son más lentas que los extraños artefactos que os acompañan en vuestra aventura.

    Pero estoy seguro que vuestro "espíritu indomable", derribará o sorteará todos los obstáculos que se presenten en la ruta.

    Un fuerte abrazo para todos los "chalados en sus locos cacharros" y especial para los "Team Uga Tuga y Yuppie".

    Sancho senior.
