Day 200 - Missiones

We decided to offer the Australians, Chris, and Valerie, a ride to Buenos Aires. We liked the couple and believe they will be interesting travel companions.

And we were also hoping to learn about their experience traveling in New Zealand, our next destination after this journey. We obtained Immigration Visas for New Zealand before we left New York, and I have job assurance from a jewelry store in Christchurch.

Busi was very interested in something crawling through the underbrush. I went to take a closer look and discovered a sizable Lizard. Ursula had to wash a few more clothes while I checked the oil level and greased the mechanical joints of the steering mechanism.

Around noon we were ready to head South on Route #12 in Montecarlo, where we visited a Swiss watchmaker. He was French-speaking and had an interesting shop equipped to service all sorts of timepieces, from wall clocks to wristwatches and alarm clocks.

He was a true gentleman and put us up for the night at the local Swiss Club. It was a relatively small community, and we appreciated the access to showers, toilets, and safe drinking water.
