Nous avons atteint les 10000kilometres a notre arrivee a El Calafate!! Les 9 derniers jours etaient "assez faciles" car nous avons ete chanceux avec le vent. En effet nous avons eu le vent dans le dos la majorite du temps, atteignant des vitesses de plus de 60k/h sur chemin dans les descentes!! Mais la semaine a ete bien evidemment remplie d'evenement car nous avons bien evidemment eu egalement le vent de face de temps en temps diminuant notre vitesse a 13 k/heure... ou egalement passe 3 heures a sortir notre camion de support du sable dans lequel il etait enfonce! Quelques photos ci-dessous!

Yo homies, looking good! Almost at destination. Fab pics...although it looks like Mick needs a shave! What's that we see attached to your chin?!? Weather looks great but I'm sure it's cold...feckin' baltic over here! How are uz enjoying the argentinian and chilean wine-we've been supporting you this end by drinking nothing else! BTW, we heard Las Vegas is shit at Xmas...apparently there's a great spot called Cloone where we're heading! Maybe see uz there. Marko & Bronagh
Wow.. I think 8th of December is only a few hours away.. and if I'm not mistaken that means your adventure is ending! I can not believe you've done it. Somehow I think it may be a bit of a struggle to get back into a 'normal' daily routine ;) You're probably already planning the next trip!!!
Hoping to see you very soon and hear all the stories. The blog has been fab but nothing beats a good story over a nice dinner and glass of wine I say.
Hugs,
Yvonne
