Parque Extremo to Cuenca (La Casa de Cesar)
32,872km to 32,925km = 53km
昨晩は風が強かったです。7時前に起床。曇ってますが風が北から吹いているのでそのうち晴れるでしょう。
テントを畳む前に風に飛ばされてフライに穴が…。ビニールテープで修復だな。
8時過ぎに出発。快適にワインディングをスイースイー。9時半にはクエンカに到着。セザールのオフィスを訪ねたら、ドローレスが「彼まだ出勤してない」とのこと。今日も彼女は機嫌悪し。一体なんなんだ?
家に戻り荷解き、シャワー。そしたらセザールが訪ねてきました。いやいやまたお世話になります。夕食を一緒にすることに。
12時頃に街に出て昼飯。そしてオースストリアン・カフェでインターネット。一週間分の日記をブログにアップ。マークとクレアからメールが来ていて、無事にペルーに入国。晴天を楽しんでるとか。
調べた結果ペルーでは車両保険の加入が義務付けられていて1ヵ月で97ソル、2ヶ月で150ソルもします(1米ドル=2.76ソル)! 思いの外高い!! ホルへ・ファンを夕食に招きましたが残念ながらキトに出張とか。
それから両替所(Vas Corp)でドルをペルーの通過ソルに両替。100米ドルが270ソルになりました。
家に戻る途中セザールを訪ねてしばらく歓談。ドローレスが珈琲を淹れてくれましたが、まだ機嫌悪し。夕食はまたタージ・マハールにて。
家に戻りラムを飲みながら歓談。「クエンカに来たらいつでも訪ねてきなさい」と。本当に本当にセザールにはお世話になりました。彼もファンとペドロと一緒に年末年始にダカール・ラリー観戦に行くそうなのでアルゼンチンで再会できるかも!
Day 324: 13 JUN 2011
Parque Extremo to Cuenca (La Casa de Cesar)
32,872km to 32,925km = 53km
The strong wind blew whole night. I got up before 7am. Sky was very dark at the southern side, but the wind was blowing from north, so it would be cleared later.
Before I put away my tent, it was blown off by the strong wind! And my tent fly got a few small holes... I need to patch them up....
We left Parque Extremo around 8am, we rode through the curves very comfortably. We got back to Cesar's place before 9:30am.
After unloaded gears, we went to see Cesar at his office, but he wasn't in yet. Dolores was very grumpy again. I don't know what's wrong with her...
Back to the house, while I was taking shower, Cesar came to visit us. How could we thank you, Cesar. We invited him for dinner tonight.
We went out for lunch in the town, and went to Austrian Cafe for Internet. I uploaded my diaries and photos to my blog.
Claire and Mark sent us an e-mail saying they were safely crossed the border to Peru and enjoying hospitality of Peruvian and blue sky!
They said having Insurance in Peru was compulsory (they checked with Tourist Information) and it would cost 97 Soles for a month and 150 Soles for 2 months. That's expensive!! We invited Jorge Juan for dinner, but he replied that he had to go to Quito, unfortunately. We wanted to thank him properly though.
Then we went to Currency Exchange at Vaz Corp. We changed US$100 each and it became 270 Soles.
On the way back to the house, we visited Cesar at his office and had chat. Dolores made us coffee but she was still grumpy...
We went to Taj Mahar again for dinner. Back to the house, having rum and listening electronic punk, we had good evening.
Cesar said to us "Any time you come back to Cuenca, visit me. Remember you have a friend in Cuenca." We would like to extend our gratitude to you, Cesar. Luckily he is also planning to see Dakar Rally at the end of this year with Juan and Pedro, so we might be able to meet in Argentina.
