10th Jan, Wild camp nr river to Puyuhuapi (42.9M)

| The sunis out there somewhere |
Possibly a slight lull in the rain this morning as we packed the tent away, but nothing significant. Tent, bikes, a lot of our kit and us were very wet. However we got back on the road and the weather was better than it had been. We had a couple of spells where the cloud lifted and reminded us that there were amazing mountains out there. I coped with my limited gears, Gareth made a few small adjustments to try and get them to run a little better, but it certainly wasn´t ideal with the amount of force going through the chain and derailler at times. Both of us tried to shut our ears to the noise of our dirty wet chains and mechanics.

| Not sure whether to be happy.... |
At La Junta, the next village, still no ATM, but we managed to buy supplies at a supermercado using my visa card and then sheltered under a bandstand to eat.
The weather generally improved throughout the day except for our final descent into Puyuhuapi where wind driven rain descended on us again. Limited money or not, we wanted hot showers and a dry bed tonight.From the tourist office we were directed to Hospedaje Don Luis, where we had a double room, hot showers and a stove to hang some of our wet gear over. Perfect.
