Bus travel around the south practically disappears this time of year meaning that right now only one bus company offers the trip north to Chaiten and that only happens twice a week. If I did the trip to Cerro Castillo I`d get back here and have another 3 days to kill before the next one heads north. I thought about doing it anyway then during that extra time heading over to Puerto Aysèn or something like that but nah, too eager to get to Chiloè Island. Of course, ferry travel between Chaitèn and Chiloè disappears around this time as well, so who knows how many days I`ll be kicking it there waiting to cross the bay. Hopefully not too long.
Coyhaique rules even more when things are open around town; been cruising around today, tons of cool cheap things to make gifts out of hanging about, plus I need a new cup for mate anyway after leaving the one I got in Bs. As. down in Ushuaia. Dumb dumb dumb. What`s mate? I`ll explain that some other time.
