The La China Estancia was 2 hours by taxi back to Buenos Aries where we would board our 18 bus ride for Puerto Madryn. The thought of an 18 hour 1,500km bus ride was not inspiring us with a great deal of excitement causing us to put off our arrival at the bus depot to the last minute. When your in a rush you really notice how heavy your backpacks are and for some reason think that buying the extra large toothpaste to save money made it so heavy.
15:00 Bus leaves Buenos Aires on time
20:00 Bus stops for supplies which looked like Indian takeaways
20:50 Bus Bingo
Bored s******s I was only too keen to play bingo, forgetting two things the first was that I am not an 80 year old lady and secondly that I can only count up to ten in Spanish, needless to say I didn´t win the bingo but it did pass a few minutes before dinner was served
21:00 Dinner Served straight from the 80´s in the form of a TV dinner
22:00 Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The only other possible note of interest about the bus is found by reviewing its technical specs. The bus comes complete with not just a chemical toilet but a whole chemical bathroom, I was too scared to use it.
