9.45, we ride up road 27, yellow on the map and a nice rolling road along the Pampa and big herds of brown cows. For the first time it is cloudy and it will stay so the rest of the day. There is also a strong wind and now and then tumble weed rolls over the road.

Along the road we see one of the many altars devoted to a not acknowledged saint. Hundreds of them we have seen and they are all different.
