Packed up all our stuff into the $20 bag we bought at the market, it weighed 30kg and i thought we wouldn't get it checked in.
Quick boozy lunch with Marion and Lindsey hugs and choked goodbyes, we had ridden all of Central America and most of South America together, promises of meeting up in Australia were made and we were in the taxi and off.
It was with mixed emotions we said good bye to South America.
Amazing continent which we will return to one day and see the parts we missed.
The people are fantastic in all the countries we never had a bad experience even though we struggled with the language.
They cannot make coffee considering they grow the stuff.
You are responsible for your own actions, if you do something stupid don't blame anyone but yourself.
Journey home via Sao Paulo Brazil was trouble free.
