AROUND THE FLAT WORLD : BACK TO CHILE

After Dakar rally at Belen,Argentina we start to ride back to Chile.Our cross over point was San Fransisco ,greatest vulcano on earth.San Fransisco is over 6000 meters high.The road we passed that vulcano was at 4800 meters high.When we were at Argentina side custom everything was just fine.Between Argentina and Chile custom it is more than one hundred kilometers distance.
Argentina side road was good asphalt serpentine road but Chile side it was soft gravel road .It takes from me and Per many ours to ride it.I was totally broken after that road.Feeling like all energy has left body .It was around 0 C cold up there and it was snowing too and terrible side wind.When we finally were at Chile custom ,it was late night.Custom officers let us sleep one night there.At this altitude you can come very sick and it happened to me.Too fast too high.After we unpacked our bikes and move our staff to custom house I feel terrible burning in my stomach .I run to toilet but it was too late.In one second there was shit in pants and puke on my knees!After cleaning this mess I crawl back to bed.Following night was nightmare.Per push me to drink water all the time but it did not stay in.
Next morning I wake up and feel little bit better.Water stay in and I could even eat a little bit.We ride to Chanaral small sea side town .Road to there was gravel road 100 km and rest was some kind of asphalt road.I feel great after last night when we arrive there.We rent small cabin near by the beach and life seems to be good again,but I was wrong!I put my nice white log sleeve shirt on.Little bit feeling to celebrate surviving San Fransisco pass.We go to local restaurant and eat nice sea food dinner.Martins asked from me if I feel good now and I say yes.At that same moment it start to bleed blood from my nose.It was bleeding a lot.I take paper from table but it was just bleeding and bleeding.I ask waitress to bring more paper from another table but he run away and I was shouting where the hell are you going!He come back after few seconds tons of paper with him and he was using rubber gloves.I put paper on nose and hold it several minutes and then it stops.After cleaning this mess ,my white shirt and jeans were at blood too.What a day.After that we walk to local pub and I was thinking that nothing can happened to me any more.After few minutes one local man say to me that look at sky now!There was one BIG burning meteorit come from sky.I have never seen anything like that.And yes this all happened to me about 24 hours.Life is good!Thanks Josh,Martins and Per
supporting me up there.Specially you Per.You are always there when I need you most.Thats brotherhood.Stay strong Ana and Per
