We left Iguaza today which took a little longer than expected as our flight was delayed for a few hours, but we finally took off and we where on our way to Salta. At the airport we were bracing ourselves for a hefty excess baggage charge, due to the fact that we only had a 15kg allowance. It never came and when the guy at check-in gave us our tickets and told us which gate to go to, we just stood there looking at him waiting for him to tell us the cost for the bags. Once our brains processed the fact that there wasn´t to be one, we made a hasty exit and counted our lucky stars at the money we had saved.
The flight wasn´t anything special although it give us an idea of how hard it would of been to have cycled over to the west side. We did receive an in flight meal of cake, cereal bar and a toffee (more than you get with easy jet!). The flight was over very soon and we soon found ourselves waiting by the conveyor waiting for our bags and bikes. This bit is always a worry. Are the bikes in one piece? Are the bikes even here? The bags kept on coming, but no bikes... Then there they were, being slide onto the conveyor with thankfully no damage to the boxes or contents. Now we had them we now had to put them together so we could get into Salta and the campsite, so we found a quiet corner and put them back together.
