 incredibly rough as well wow it's really annoying actually hi I'm Lavi and I'm Oli and this is our hero bumblebee together we are attempting a Guinness world record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle join us for season three here in South America I think our beloved tent starts to break the zip is giving up here I hope we can fix it somehow we have to clean it later out and see if we can repair it good morning world welcome back to the channel it's day number 259 on our circumnavigation around the globe by motorcycle we're here in the small town of Cerro Castillo in Chile just next to the border to Argentina yes and we had a really good night here in our tent underneath this bus station we actually had a little bit of a lion as well yeah it's pretty sheltered from the wind and it had a cover at the top and it was actually really cozy very cozy very nice but let me show you guys where we're heading today so we are here and today we're gonna be crossing over the border back into Argentina and following the route of 40 up and around to the town of El Calafate yes today we'll be crossing the Chile-Argentina border for the fifth time so far on our trip we've got some really really cool mountain spots to check out on the Argentinian side starting with the town of El Calafate where we're heading today which is just next to an amazing glacier called the Perito Moreno Glacier so hopefully we can get to this town and then get over and see this glacier so we have about 150 miles to cover which is Tarmac Road and dirt road and it's already 10 o'clock so better hit the road let's go goodbye bus station goodbye peaceful camp shelter home you know I still didn't see any any star for anyone around the whole place is just completely dead yeah super crazy it feels like a ghost town here yeah I mean yesterday when we came in I didn't see anyone around no I didn't see anyone around maybe it is like a ghost town very cool place so what a location hey wow epic location for a town oh it's the border here oh yes maybe this is already the border can we park up and we'll see quicker than expected yeah I did not realize that we were right in front of it what it's funny okay let's go take it out rock and roll so that was pretty easy I gave them our passports to be stamped out of Chile I gave them the temporary import permit that we got when we entered Chile and they took that back and gave me a little slip of paper to take over to the Argentinian side so that's it that's out of Chile back into Argentina whoa man look at this surroundings here such a nice day as well as 18 degrees wow yeah I really like these remote border crossings like the one we did the Diyama border between Montetanian Senegal here it is barrage the Diyama the border of Diyama and we have officially entered Senegal it's just a different feeling when you go through a remote border and there's just a little heart surrounded by the mountains and you're just like everything's like nice and calm and hello yes whereas when you go through like major borders they're like next where are you going oh where's your hotel yeah they have to deal with a lot of more people yeah so if you get a chance when you're doing overlanding you should always go for the small little remote borders even if you've got to take a dirt road you will appreciate it bienvenidos a la república argentina all right Argentinian formality is done we've got our temporary import permit again and we're officially entering Argentina for the third or fourth time muchas gracias ciao all right I feel like having a martin now so from here it says on the sign there it's 200 kilometers to El Calafate I think we've got quite a bit of dirt roads to do before we hook up with the larger road so it should be a very nice and wild open ride today back in the Patagonian step super is 153 it's a little bit more expensive I hope it's open look look at this cute little fuel station wow oh yeah the sign says open there you go okay see if someone's around mil mil peso mil peso gracias so that's a thousand so it's like six liters gracias muchas gracias so now it says it's 99 miles and we've got in the tank plenty plenty absolutely plenty yeah look all the stickers though in the window yeah we really really really have to get our own stickers yeah such a cool petrol station a cool place so from here there's actually two ways to have Calafate there's the main tarmac way going that way which is about 150 miles or we can save 50 miles by taking this little cut through dirt road so we're gonna do that now we're dirt road pros we're gonna we're gonna try and see how we go yeah don't say that too loud yeah maybe we have to turn around yeah it's quite rocky here big rocks it is actually very very rocky isn't it yeah let's see if we just stay on this line here yeah some flamingos over there as well some flamingos nice and fortunately it's not there whoa whoa haha not the greatest quality cut through unfortunately but it's a pretty stunning place to ride through if I get a chance to look around which you don't know you have to concentrate on the road Jesus that's a bumpy road oh man oh man oh Jesus oh I think actually I think the line looks better okay on the right let's try it yeah okay so relaxing I love this rural cut through road conditions are still pretty pretty bad very bumpy very stony yeah indeed bumpy stony I hope that our tires will make it yeah but thank God we got that bash plate hey yeah as we had a lot of bonk bonk bonk from some pretty large stones hitting it yeah I'm really hoping that it doesn't stay this bad for the rest of the 30 remaining miles we just stopped to fly the drone but it doesn't look very good I think the road might have killed the drone we had a problem like this before that the gimbal broke and I think it happened again how is it no oh no so that was a bit of a failure with the drone in the end it looks like the gimbal motor is broken or the gimbal doesn't work so basically the camera is just flopping around and it doesn't work at all yeah really really really sad yeah we're gonna have to get in touch with DJI and see what we can do about it but luckily we have our backup Mavic Mini but we didn't use it in such a long time that actually the battery level just went down naturally over time so when we started to fly it just then it was already at about 40 percent battery so we managed to get like one shot in and then it was like nope I'm done the Mini is a good backup but it's not very strong it's like a really really mini drone yeah not really good in strong winds and I can't really fly very far and it can't like auto follow you and stuff yeah so you're really really restricted with the Mini yeah yeah yeah definitely I guess that's the price you have to pay on these dirt roads things are starting to break down let's just hope the bumblebee is not breaking down that's the main thing it's the most important yeah incredibly rough as well wow wow that was really rough ah it's really annoying actually now Jesus just stopping here for a little lunch break before we joined up with the route to 40 again behind the bike because of the wind so what have we got for lunch so we had the one boiled egg and we mixed it up with mayonnaise and some hot sauce and then we have it in a wrap it's probably gonna be pretty tasty do you want some crackers in there as well yeah maybe let's crumble some crackers into there as well we're just using like all the food that we've got left over and just sort of all chucking it together so boiled egg mayo hot sauce cracker wraps job done so it looks like we're coming back on the route national 40 that is the end of our dirt roads so I think we'll just pump up our tires before we get back on in the end I'm not sure that that cut-through was worth it I hope we can organize a new drone yeah just coming off of the step wow look at this ahead that looks actually unreal what a view hey incredible the distance you can see again the snowy mountains that's kind of where heading towards so this is El Calafate up ahead and you can just about see as well Largo Argentino Lake Argentino and all the crazy mountains behind so first destination here in town is now that we check out the tourist information center that we can see and figure out how we can visit the glacier here yeah that's pretty much what this town is famous for it's the gateway to the Perito Moreno Glacier and then after we will meet Glen and Agnes again because they took a bus this morning to El Calafate and they found a really nice and cheap accommodation actually on booking.com and yeah we can spend the night together good evening guys we made it happy and alive yeah and this accommodation that Glen and Agnes found is absolutely awesome come check it out I will sleep here Ollie I will sleep here look at that I mean I'm sleeping in like a fold-out drawer bed brilliant kitchen it's a little bit messy in here because we're kind of organizing cleaning and doing everything that we need to do all of the maintenance on the road I'm doing a washing machine at the moment our socks and our underwear where everything needs to get a good wash yeah absolutely the shower is really nice too and then this is the room where the guy sleeping so very very cool very cool absolutely and this one was like 40 pounds 42 pounds for the place split between the four of us that's really not too bad a price and look the view we can see pretty much the
