Early in the morning I passed the first border and visited the “ciudad del este” in Paraguay, but as it was Sunday all stores and malls were closed which is Paraguay’s main attraction! As it is a destination that has nothing special to do, even on the same day, I started towards Uruguay, part of the way I went through Argentina where I bought enough gasoline to Uruguay since at that moment in Brazil it was impossible to find gasoline.
The best of the day was to return to Brazil, where I stopped at a strike center at a gas station where there were more than 100 trucks since last Monday and were in protest! When they know I was a traveler and Portuguese, they offered barbecue and drinks and refused to receive anything in return! I had to ask you please to stop putting food in my hands! All this food is being offered by the population to truck drivers to help them protest!
