Crossing the Border

3.00pm We boarded the bus with destination to Puerto Frias, Customs procedures to exit Chile and enter Argentina. Whilst at the customs office, the bus driver found a furry arachnid 'friend' and brought him in to show us! David was questioned by the customs officer about his rank, headquarters and about being a police officer.....
We boarded the bus and I took the picture below of what the dirt road looked like!
A short time later we crossed the border into Argentina - crossing picture below. Our bags were not chosen to be randomly searched. At Puerto Frias, we boarded a small vessel for a 20 minute sail to Puerto Alegre. From P.Alegre we took the bus to Puerto Blest.
Last picture: Another picture stop to take a photo of (volcano) Mount Tronador, on the road to the Argentian border.
