Rio Gallegos to El Calafate - 190 miles
Mac and I rode to El Calafate this morning to rejoin the group. They were all tired and a littlew busted up after 5 days of rough off-road riding. One bike damaged beyond repair, several other falls, two sprained ankles and one sprained knee.
Our hotel here is directly in front of a modern hospital. I got another anti-inflamatory shot and have two more scheduled for tomorrow. They seem to be helping somewhat.
El Calafate is a tourist town, done tastefully. It has spectacular blue ice glaciers as a backdrop and they lure travellers from around the world. I'll probably do a day long boat expedition the day after tomorrow. Then its off to Torres del Paine in Chile.
