We Made it to South America with our Bluelandy // EP.66
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 жов 2023
- After more than 1,5 years we have arrived in South America. Our first stop Uruguay, where we picked our bluelandy at the port of Montevideo. But things will not go as planned and the start will be the opposite of smooth.
First, the the batteries were down, because they were not disconnected during the container loading and second one of the straps snapped and the car was loose during the shipping. We will need to keep an eye on both problems, to avoid future damage.
After or not so not-so-successful start, we decided to travel along the coast of Uruguay, towards the East. But we are not lucky with the weather. Visiting Punta del Este, Punta Ballena, Laguna de Rocha, and next to Cabo Polonio.
We get constant rain and big storms over us, I guess it is normal for winter in Uruguay, but we are not used to it after many months in summer-like weather.
Enjoy the Ride!

Good to see Blue Landy is alive and well and back on the road.
Bluelandy is back, with slowly but surely dying batteries , but still enough energy for a while. Keep checking our channel for the next days, our arrival in Argentina was dramatic...

It was really special to arrive in South America, even though we had a bit of a rough start 🤯 wait for the next episode 🙈
@@Thebluelandy Oh my that sounds like an epic adventure. Honestly comparing this to the UK BBC adventures. I expect amazing things 😉 x
Wow I didn’t have to wait long. Brilliant video with some stunning shots. Loved it. Your filming and editing skills are excellent. Can’t wait for the next one.
Thank you so much for the feedback ☺️ the next one , yeap, I don't know how to present it actually 😵 it was peaceful until it got dramatic... Let's see 🙈
Magnifique !!
Merci!!
The excitement begins! 👍🏻🙏🦘
Yes!! And it's going to be even better than we expected 😱
Great to see you back on the road again.Let the adventure begin.
Let the adventure unfold yeah! It has already been insane. 🤯
Welcome to South America.
I was follow your videos for a year more or less, and now you are hear...
My name Is Eckhard, I live at pinamar, a small coastal Town 350km south from Bs As, we move ten years ago to grow our family. If you ever need help, or been close from here, please count with us for support.
Good luck and I hope see you on my way to south this summer.
Hi Eckhard! Thank you so much for taking the time to write us ❤️ sadly we will not come south from Buenos Aires... Our route goes all the way to Iguazú and then to the southwestern part of Argentina and from there down to Ushuaia! If you are traveling somewhere int hat route we can meet for sure ! 😁
Wow! At last
ZIKHOMO 🌍 AFRICA 👍
Thank you for waiting 😁
Sehr spannendes Ende 😳
Das nächste mal mehr 😅
@Thebluelandy Ein bisschen was konnte man ja auf Insta erahnen 🙂
Ah yes, weather looks rainy and chilly in Uruguay but no doubt will begin to warm up as October-November arrives in the Southern Hemisphere.
Good to see you reunited with Bluelandy with no real problems from container shipping other than dead batteries (and the cactus wondering what happened). 😂
Loved the visit to the Series garage!
Now it's all the way north from here!!
It was really chilly, not so great to be back in the bluelandy with that kind of weather 😵 the batteries, ufff we need to replace them they are giving us headaches, wait for the next episode to understand more...
We were lucky and the Landy didn't move much and destroyed the land cruiser and motorbikes inside.
Regarding the visit, we got a business card on our windshield and we couldn't resist. From here it's not actually strictly north, we will do a big looped around beautiful Argentina and then up Chile ✌️
@@Thebluelandy The ups and downs are common when you are on the road, I imagine. All the best to you both in the coming weeks and months as you begin to head North(ish). South America will be very exciting to explore, no doubt!
Looking forward to future videos.
What a funny episode. Safe journey ahead and don't feed the Landy too much, so it doesn't grow taller
Danke!!! Yeah we should keep it as low as possible 😜
Whales!!
Yihaaaa! Beautiful ❤️ one can see them really close to the coast at this time of the year !🐳
As the owner of a 1975 Toyota FJ40, I had to smile when the Land Cruiser helped you out at the port.
We tried the but the motorcycle would not pull the landy 😂
Have fun down south.... your Landy is not small lol. My Hummer H3 has a lot less room for sure!!!!
Oh yeah for sure! Still there is not much space to get comfy when it’s cold and rainy
We are pretty compact I think, at least now traveling 3 it feels like it 🤣🤣
@@Thebluelandy hey.... there's no room when I'm packed out.... it's either the tent or front seats.... I'll swap you ant time!
Hey guys - be careful out there. Look at this week's news about a Ugandan Game Reserve attack. Great videos but please stay safe xx
Wow, that's terrible 😔 RIP. We are always taking care but one can always have bad luck . Let's keep the 🍀 on our side 🙏
Are ANIMALS AND BIRDS ,IN IN SOUTH AMERICA 🇺🇸 LIKE IN IN AFRICA 🌍, ANIMALS AND THE BIRDS, LIKED YOURS VIDEOS 📹 OFF SOUTH AMERICA 🇺🇸, AWESOME 👌 CHABWINO 👉AFRICA 🌍 👍
Wtf
@@johnsebastianbachYes it does deserve a "wtf"....there is introductory weird-o-rama stuff here.
South America here we come! First Uruguay 🇺🇾 and then for a long time Argentina 🇦🇷
The car infront is always a Toyota....😅😅
If you don’t disconnect the batteries of to Toyota for three months the car in front is also not moving 🙈
Another continent congratulations! 👍 Maybe more suffering.
We are excited! Hopefully not 😵
@@Thebluelandy Sorry I meant to say surfing 🏄♀️
@@johndiaz7240 ouh then hopefully yes ! 🙈😜
