Well its been nice knowin ya. This is the last night well spend on the road. Last night, since the route has been consistently levee with river on one side of the road and little houses on the other side, we spent the night in a motel. It was obscenely expensive (never stay at the piquimine best western, too pricey), but still better than stealthing it on some dude and dudettes land. We have been cruising pretty well the past couple of days, and right now we're camped at a plantation bed and breakfast. This place charges 15 buckies a person to take a walking tour, and their cheapest room is 130 buckies each night. Well, I was able to talk our way into pitching our tents behind the front office, right next to the bathies, and gaining "completely unrestricted access" throughout the grounds all night for a mere ten buckies. Pretty nice of them to let us do this and we will talk about it.
We are dreading tomorrows ride. The weather calls for hurricaine, so wish us luck. There is an actual bike trail leading us through the last 20 miles of the ride, but the first 20 are gonna suck with rain and high ass winds. We are determined though so we will make it. I'd rather ride in a shitstorm for a few hours than try to wait it all out in a teeny little tenty. We will do final analysis writes when we are dry and warm.
Sent from my fingers and brain.
