The day off at the Terra Luna lodge is spectacular...unless your name is Bruce. It seems that he has decided to come down with a bout of "Travelers Sickness". No worries, we packed some Cipro antibiotic and he should be as good as new in 36 hrs. And the other great thing about Cipro, as broad spectrum antibody, it treats many other maladies such as Gonorrhea :-)
The lodge was a fun place to hang and you could zip line, helo ride, kayak or just walk around the campus. Or your dog could take you for a boat ride.

Maryland has all these odd initiatives to clean up the Chesapeake Bay. I think they think that one day it will be this clear. But really, the only way to do that is to export 90% of the residents. Because the secret to pollution is dilution!

There were these birds which appeared to be everywhere. Everywhere until I had a camera. Then they were nowhere. They had a long beak and frankly their behavior resembled that of Kevin from Pixar's movie "UP". They even make a maddening laughing noise, just to add salt to my wound.
But no worries, I am an avian expert photographer, and captured these feathered friends. And no, I don't want to hear that one is an ordinary goose!

The ride today is all but very short. Probably because our hotel for the rest day was 1.5 hrs into the days ride, and there was all but no lines at our 3rd border crossing. Nonetheless, we still seemed to get ourselves into a bit a pickle. Bruce's license plate was only secured with 2 bolts at the top. The washboards have stress fractured the corners of the plate, and well, now it is riding in his side case. Should be a flipping hoot, as we go through at least one policia inspection station daily.
Devils Tower of the South?
The landscape is certainly changing, as the snow capped mountains are fading away.
The hotel tonight, Hosteria Antigua Patagonia, appears to be an old military building of some sort. And of course, right on the water!
We absolutely know we are in the right place...this is the sign in the lobby! And a room has a view!
