Bus Brain

I just calculated, and I have been travelling for over fifty hours from the Pacific Coast in Chile almost to the Atlantic in Argentina! Ugh. I know I’m lucky that I’m not stuck somewhere, but those two days of doing nothing in Chile really ate into my time.’ Suddenly I find myself with five days worth of stuff to do and only three days to do it. 🙁 Guess that means I’m going to have to come back! 🙂

Right now, I’m in Puerto Iguazu, Argentina. Tomorrow I’m going to see the Iguazu Falls. Our bus didn’t get in until 11:30 today, and the bus out of here leaves every night at six, so I opted to spend all day tomorrow instead of ten seconds today at the falls. I also learned that my hopes of going to a Natl. Park in Argentina where they have all sorts of cool wild life (monkeys too!) were quickly to become a pipe dream. Once again, they way it looks on the map isn’t always (is rarely!) the way the buses go. I thought I could hit the park on my way down to Argentina, but turns out I have to pass the park (as the crow flies), then take a bus that loops back on a different road. Anyway… I’m suddenly wondering where all the time went and can’t believe that I only have four days left until I will be in an airplane chasing the sunset!
