Oct 24: Mototaxi familiarization day in Huancayo and initial route planning. Launch party that night at which I will try to avoid getting trashed. Oct 25: Any last minute preparation, official send-off at noon! ... many days of adventure ... Nov 7*: Arrive in Asuncion, Paraguay. Return moto taxi and attend finish celebration party.
