The plan
The general plan is simple.
Show up Friday, have a drink, tell some lies, have another drink, eat, talk to people, sleep!
A huge asado for Saturday is planned, and lots more to do and travellers to meet. Expect a great time - everyone raved about last years Viedma Meeting, so go and have a great time!
Monday, time to head south for Christmas and New Years at Ushuaia, or east or west or wherever!
You can help!

Getting There - GPS, Maps
40° 49' South 62° 59' West.
Viedma is right on the main highway heading south from Buenos Aires. Hard to miss! You shouldn't have a problem finding the campsite once you get there, just ask for the "campground by the river". Phone Oskar for information if you have trouble. 02920-424096.
Other Accommodation Possibilities
There are hotels in town, shouldn't be a problem.
Any suggestions anyone?
