We had been
concerned last night of being moved on. A vehicle arrived about 6am
and parked on the opposite side of road by a river. John thought they
were fisherman. Later he discovered they were Parques officers one of
which was away in the bush. We assumed they were there to catch
illegal fisherman not to keep an eye on us.
Drove north to Villa
La Angostura on the same lake 60 odd km's away. These lakes are
big! Within this National park is another national park. Which is almost an island but still connected by a narrow neck of land. We had a short
walk up to the lookouts although drizzling on and off the view was great especially out to the NE. We got back to the vehicle to find someone had written on the SA map. They had written the Argentina name for the Falklands and indicated it belonged to Argentina. We erased the writing then continued our trip north.
We had planned on
camping in the free camping area but no motor homes allowed. There was
no-one else there but decided to do the right thing and move on. The
views are spectacular with the lakes and mountains.
Finally camped in
the corner of a lookout over the northern reaches of lake Nahuel
Huapi.
I cooked up all the
spare apples and also cooked the veges and chicken into a big soup
so hopefully we will not loose it at the border. While I was cooking this John read up about the history of the Falklands.
