The farmer was rounding up his cattle on this cool morning.

We were in no real hurry to leave. Our trip is coming to an end and we face a week of cleaning!!!

The sealed road was so rough that the grader was filling potholes and tiding up the edges....

We had a quick late lunch in Colon then headed to the border crossing. We spent most of our Argentinian cash filling up with fuel just 2 km shy of the border. 

Again the border crossing was  different. All was done on the Uruguay side after we paid a road toll. Got the car price as did not have enough Argentinian pesos left for truck price. A  customs lady entered the truck and I opened the plate drawer for her. She was happy and left.

Managed to get some Uruguayan money at Paysandu and some credit on the Uruguayan SIM, then headed for a camp. Turned off the red road onto a very busy yellow but found an old bridge crossing loop and camped near that. Our last camp for South America so we opened a bottle of wine.
