crossing the border

The bike ride was a good overview of the area surrounding Bariloche. I would have liked to done some hiking, but no camping equipment, a general dislike of Bariloche itself, and a stronger desire to spend some time on the island of Chiloe in Chile before boarding the Navimag on Monday caused us to move on. Here are some pics from the ride into Chile.

A word to the wise, don't bring fruit, cheese, or meat into Chile. We would have gotten hassled a good bit, if not arrested, were it not for an extremely friendly steward on the bus who was apparently very friendly with the customs agents. There were all kinds of pictures at the board of apples in handcuffs and things of that nature.
