Buenos Aires
Monday, October 10th is a bank holiday in Argentina, Colombus Day. I
remained in Buenos Aires at the bivouac of Av. Julieta Lanteri.
Las Flores
On Tuesday, October 11th I left the avenue Julieta Lanteri at Buenos
Aires to go towards to Ushuaia at low speed in order to wait the
southern summer. But before I took a complement of breakfast in McDo
to use Wifi connection in order to publish the pages of my website.
The absolutely flat landscape, approximately 30 m high, consists of
pastures. Then on the RN #3 I was looking for a bivouac in the
streets of the village Las Flora.

RN #76
Wednesday, October 12th was long road in a landscape of very tedious
pastures. Finally I found a bivouac close to an unused and in ruin
gas-station.

Bahia Blanca, RN #3
On Thursday, October 13th was still a long driving morning on the RN
#51 to reach Bahia Blanca where I made supply at the Carrefour
Market downtown area. Then I found a bivouac at the edge of a
channel on the RN #3 full south towards Ushuaia at 3,387 km, of
course with some detours for visits.

Balneario El Condor
On Friday, October 14th on the way towards Balneario El Condor I
stopped in Carmen de Patagones at Tourist Office to obtain a city
map. Bingo there is a Wifi connection which I will use on Monday
morning to publish the pages of my website. The visit of the city
was disappointing because no monument was open. After having climbed
a staircase I discovered the towers of the church. But before I
passed in front of the Rancho Rial dating back to 1820, then it was
the Torre del Fuerte built to control the access to the city in
1780. Finally I arrived at Iglesia Parroquial Nuestra Señora del
Carmen, 1883, which has a Virgin dating back to 1780. After this
short visit I moved towards Balneario El Condor to bivouac vis-a-vis
the sea waiting for, according to the T.O, a lot of parrots at
fallen the night, to follow.

Bahia Rosas
On Friday, October 15th I decided to go to visit Reserva Faunistica
de Punta Bermeja located after La Loberia. Sea lions wallow at the
bottom of the cliff whereas parrots nest in the cliff and undertake
grouped flights such the aviators during the exhibitions above
aerodromes. The view of parrots with their sumptuous colors is a
moment of pure happiness. I found a bivouac at Bahia Rosas above the
cliff at 23 m of altitude.

Baja El Faro
On Sunday, October 16th I went back towards Carmen de Patagones by
stopping at Baja El Faro little before Balneario El Condor. It had
rained during the night and the day was gloomy with a cloudy sky
without hope of breaks and a temperature of +12°C. While going down
to Ushuaia the temperature will not be mild in spite of the southern
summer at the end of November.
