• Day 205 - Taking Rest Day

    22 November 1974, Argentina

    (Ursula) We are staying in this friendly small village and taking a rest day. Valerie and I are washing clothes while Heinz is performing car maintenance. Chris is writing in their travel diary.

    It was a comfortable day drinking tea in between and eating well. There were leftovers from the Parilla party and tasty vegetables they called Zapatillo. We still had lots of oranges, so I made Sangria drinks and an orange salad for dessert. Stats: Expenses $2.35

    (Ursula) And our trip continues. Driving through the cities of Santa Fe and Rosario with large industrial zones. Many red lights and heavy truck traffic slowed us down, but we were not in a hurry.

    Between cities, we passed beautiful sunflower fields and cattle pastures again.

    Toward the evening, we stopped in San Pedro, where we found a campsite on the Rio Paraná. The river was colored red from all our rain, but we bravely took a refreshing dip since the campsite lacked showers. We were feeling so great!
