A big day

After I inofficially bought my bike on 10th of december by now (2,5 month later) it's finally mine. Now I can be a proud owner for 4 weeks before it's getting sold again. To achieve this I only had to fight a bureaucracy apparatus that in the whole universe probably only is outmatched by the vogons. One of the highlights was amongst others that one lady wanted me to submit the divorce papers of the former owner. But that I only have a room in Sua for 3 nights didn't seem to bother anyone. All obstacles passed without getting crazy or screaming. Zen-level: Master. Oh, and the pen-drawing really is a signature. They are a bit more extravagant here in Ecuador.

Getting to the mangroves by land sometimes makes you wish you had a danger surcharge



Rather sit back and cruise the channels with Don Victor from the Ministerio Ambiente in Muisne and his nephews

Treated myself by being settled for 2 weeks. Therefore had to drive longer ways but didn't have to pack my bags every two days again
