2017-05-03 Day 17


John had the camp site already marked on the map. We had a half hour wait for the ferry and although small was ample big enough for EC. However when we arrived at the camp site it was not suitable, so we decided to head through Puerto Montt and camp on the other side after checking the PO for Johns glasses.

I duly threw John out at the Post Office with his passport. I was going to drive a square as there was no parking. First two corners went well however the third was a no right turn so off exploring I went. Luckily the “Witch” was still taking me to the PO so after a while I was able to follow her directions back to John.  This was our first real trial with our walkie talkies which worked really well.

Found a spot for the night on the harbor to the East of Puerto Montt. Where the Internet connection was good.

I was going to have a sleep to prepare for meetings tonight but instead we decided to go ask about ferry tickets. Long story short, we ended up way up at the top of town so decided to shop first. We got all we wanted and then went to the port only to find out that we can buy the ferry tickets we need, at the ferry terminals. All good.

Back to camp site. First meeting went well and at the beginning of second one, about midnight the internet stopped. We assumed we had used John's quota. So off to bed.
