Thanks for the support ya'll

P.S. tsa loved going through our stuff

Hi Myles & Amy,
Before you climb the big rock,please try Argentinian style BBQ and Russian salad if you have a chance. They are very good and tasty and give you ton of energy.
Have a great trip.

On our way to Uruguay.... The bus is cushie! Yeah we have wifi on it. So far customs and everyone else is pretty excited for us. They have helped us lift and carry bags from one place to another.... Way cool!

Few more hours and our feet will be in the sand!

As everyone says it currently "Chow"

Oh Shin... We grubbed hard!

Got a Sat phone so you can keep these coming?
Or do they have wireless in to the rock?

Myles and Amy,

Again, best of luck on the big whale . Watch out for broken eggs and I hope to see both of you again in 2013 and hear about this amazing adventure!

Hey guys we are doing great. I would love to show photos but the Internet is spotty. So here is a read or two for you.

I have a wicked sunburn and seashell in my foot.

Talk to you lathers and thanks for the support!

La casa en la Playa

Day four en la Playa

Happy holidays!!

Wish you all the best.

Eve before Christmas

Ahhh! We are finally on the bus to Chili. Well one of four buses to be exact. It will be about 2 in a half days sitting on our rumps.

We almost were not allowed on the bus out of Uruguay at Punta Del Diablo because of our bags being giant. Amy had some words to exchange with the driver then some private meeting took place, then the bags started flying in the cargo bay. One bus down three more to go....

Christmas was wild fireworks lite the sky and streets for an hour. Booms and explosions in every direction.... It was rad.

Dougs you readin' this?

Wish you all the best!
