We got word from the shipper today. The bikes are now at the dock finishing up the last paperwork. That is all fine except the the scheduled voyage does not get the bike to Valparaiso until 12/28. Jim and I arrive on 12/28. The plan was to have the bikes there and ready to go in the hands of my friend Carlos.
We may yet get the bikes on an earlier ship, but if not Jim and I discussed the delay and worst case is we'll have to hang out in the area around Santiago, Chile, and Mendoza, Argentina, and enjoy the wine county, riding and let the Dakar Rally come to us.
Jim also suggested that after the rally and a taste of Bolivia it might be good to go see Alejandro Braceras in Buenos Aires if we miss the Atlantic Coast on the first pass due to shipping delays.
I enjoy the lack of a fixed plan...
