Here are my notes from the bus...
Talked to the bus drivers. Asked about the differences between Argentina and Uruguay.
One was saying in Arg there are more strikes, closing the bridges etc. He said something like they would never do that in Europe.
Passing the mate.
The sign says "Dont talk to the conductor." but I was talking to them and they were talking to each other most of the trip!
Bike riders following truck at about 70 km
They had nice regional music on, not loud. I had an intelligent conversation with them. Something which would have been impossible in Peru. You can really see the difference here between this country and Peru.
The bus is old but very quite. Rides like a new bus.

Took this one to try to show how the driver was steering with one hand, while holding the mate in that hand, and shifting the gears with the other hand!

Passiing the mate

The brave (or crazy?) bike riders! I have followed trucks before but never on a highway like this at almost 50 miles per hour!

Just to remind me we stopped in town called Young. (And of the invasion of the evengelicals)

The mate

It is prohibited to talk to the driver. ha ha
