Days 514 – 584: Uruguay to Argentina and the end of the journey

As far as border crossings have been on this trip, it seems like the forces of the universe saved the best for last; the crossing from Uruguay to Argentina on December 19 took about five minutes before we were riding into Argentina to finish our journey. Details are on our Border Crossings page for all […]

Days 436 – 446: Peru to Bolivia and its incredible cities

On Tuesday, October 2, we had a 2-hour ride from the town of Puno to the border crossing for Bolivia. We stopped on the way to take a look at Lake Titicaca, but we didn’t have a good viewpoint and just our cell phones so we didn’t the greatest picture. Boo hoo for us. Lake […]

Days 397 – 413: Livin’ la vida Lima

Riding into Lima was, quite possibly, our most stressful arrival upon a city on this trip so far. I have ranted about Peruvian drivers being certifiably insane and Lima, being the capital city, seems to be a cesspool of the worst drivers imaginable. Not only did it seem like everyone on the road was trying […]

Days 381 – 392: A lake, two cities, and a border town

Upon hearing about the beautiful colonial city of Cuenca, we knew that this was one place we needed to visit before leaving Ecuador so, after spending a great week in Quito, we headed south. Since the road to Cuenca is an 8-hour ride, we split the journey into two trips with a stop in the […]

Days 367 – 372: Flowers, coffee, and a church

We left Medellín on the morning of Wednesday, July 25, and rode south for almost three hours to our next stop in Jardín, a colourful colonial town with an abundance of flowers, as its name implies. We arrived fairly early in the afternoon, giving us a good amount of time to have some lunch, check-in at our […]

Day 310: The Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá

On Tuesday, May 29, we rode for about an hour from Bogotá to the town of Zipaquirá. The town is primarily known for the Catedral de Sal (Salt Cathedral), an underground church built within the tunnels of a salt mine. The town itself is quite nice, but the cathedral was our main reason for visiting Zipaquirá so, that is […]
