Unfortunately, I am not lying when I say something goes wrong in about 50 % of my bus journeys. After 4 days of constant rain in Cordoba, I decided to head to Rosario for a night. I was supposed to arrive there at 4 pm, spend the afternoon there, and head to Buenos Aires the next day.
It was raining especially hard when I got on the bus but I was drowning myself into music while falling asleep. I woke up at one of the terminals only to see water everywhere in the bus. Of course, that had already happened in the last bus where I woke up soaked so I wasn't really surprised. What did surprise me however was that the drivers where being rained on as they were on the road and decided this bus was ending the journey preemptively. No big deal, we just had to wait an hour and a half for the next bus. We cram into the next bus and happily drive to Rosario. As I was calling hostels to book a bed for the night, the bus stopped on the highway. What now? Oh yeah- bus number 2 ran out of gasoline! Sure enough, we waited another 2 hours for another bus to come and get us in the middle of the highway. By that time, it was 8pm, cold and raining, so I decided to go straight to Buenos Aires.
