Buses

12th March
So it´s time to start covering some ground again, in the opposite direction.
So up early, to the bus station for the 9am bus to Montevideo, it´s sold out.
The next one is at 1:30pm.
This made all our connections pretty tight.
In Montevideo at 4pm and got straight on a bus leaving for Colonia, barely made it.
Arrive in Colonia at 7:30pm the departure time for the only boat to Buenos Aires.
Go to buy a ticket while Stuart ran to get the shoes he forget in the hostel.
Am ignored by everyone, loads of people crowded around the ticket office and no-one selling any tickets. Finally they say no more space, but when they hear that we don´t have a car, they can sell us a ticket. Rush through immagration and get on the boat half an hour late just before it sailed, few.
Then three hours to Buenos Aires turns into four.
11:30 go to the hostel where Stuart has more stuff to collect.
They have no more beds so we decide to get dinner and head straight to the bus station.
1:30am in the bus station, no more busses to Cordoba so we get a bus leaving immediately to Rosario instead, this is on the way.
5:30am arrive in Rosario, sometimes you just have to cover some ground.
Rosario is the birth place of Che Guavara and is supposed to be quite a nice city.
