[nb: the live gps-track from today consists of two parts, a 16km & a 14km segment as the phone shut down dur. the run, perhaps the rain ?, and gps-transmission had to restart]

A cold windy rain stage - not much more to say about that.. ;- )

However a great tenting spot yesterday (see pic.) and for once sheltered from the strong wind that sweeps across the low argentinian plains.

After this short rain-&-shower-run we also found a very enjoyable overnight option: A hotel in nearby Piedra Bueno.
This small city of ca. 6000 pepole has an interesting connection to present day political history; which Ill try to write more about tomorrow ! Now its time for a hot shower :- )))
