Awake at 5, still dark, by fishermen. Yes 2km of fore shore and they park 50m away. Apart from that a lovely quite night. We spent some time as usual on our computers then left to visit Alicia and Mario. 
We spent a couple of hours with them. John tried to identify the vines he had for wine then ended up at the neighboring house doing the same. Alberto invited john for a drink but Mario said we were his guests so Aberto and hit partner came and joined us. Just before we left we swapped contact details. I showed Alicia how to use google translate and copy the message to whatsApp and send to me.

On our way to the museo Rocsen again… We thought we may have been there on the 1st but it is still 2 days away.
As usual we tried to stay away from traffic, but the first while we had to share with all the holiday traffic. Quite well behaved but still not a nice feeling having a coach close to you wanting to pass on a windy road so we often pulled off to the side to let the traffic pass.
Of the 2 roads that cross the northern edge of the parque nacional Quebrada del Condorito we chose the windy one. Our map shows both roads of an equal quality.
The windy road was obviously the original road and, although maintained, was rather slow. It was nice to be in the hills and on an interesting road again.

We found a lovely camp spot near the top looking down over where we had come from. A five star camp with internet…..
