Drove through Player
Doradas, it is a town with lots of infrastructure. Wide streets, board
walks along the beach but quite dead at this time of the year. I guess
January & February it is humming.
The little road
north was also blocked by a locked gate. There was no fence and numerous cars had gone around but we didn’t want to risk it with
over 100km’s to travel.Back out to Ruta 3 and settle in. Up to San Antonio Oeste at the head of the Gulf then Wast a little then north on Ruta 251. Still a lot of trucks on this road. 240km later we are at Rio Colorado. Fueled up and headed out of town to our little dirt road another Ruta 1. A good wide dirt road and were able to travel most at 85km/hr. There has been some rain lately and although the road is dry the gutters are not!!! We intended to drive till dark but found a lovely camp sit on the top of the brow of a small hill so stopped early.
As we were stopped I
took the opportunity to cook the osso bucco and the beetroot.One car came past.
