<\/a>This picture shows the road as it goes through the nearby (5 minutes) village of Novella. \u00a0The road through the center of the village (upper left) is little more than a narrow driveway – yet, it not a driveway. \u00a0It is only one car wide at that point. If you follow down toward the bottom you\u2019ll see a sharp 90 degree turn, then a hairpin\/switchback turn, then another 90 and very quickly another turn of more than 90 degrees! Those 4 turns happen in less than 1\/4 mile of driving! \u00a0This bit of road is not unusual – in fact, this is how it all is in the area. Of course it\u2019s because of the moutinas. Going any distance causes you to be going up or down steep mountains, so the only way to make it work is to have these ribbon-candy like roads!<\/p>\nToday we were preparing to turn onto a road near where we are staying and suddenly a full sized transport truck came around the corner, drove by us and disappeared around another corner. \u00a0WOW! As we sat and considered our route back, we looked up and to our surprise this is what we saw! The same truck came around the turn and on down that narrow road just like it was the Trans-Canada highway at home! \u00a0These guys are talented… but I don\u2019t know what the driver meeting that truck would do!<\/p>\n Here is a quick video of a pretty moderate piece of local road:<\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0This was a surprise. \u00a0We continued on our way and shortly came upon the truck pulled to the side of the road. \u00a0We continued, got some groceries and on the way back we pulled off to the side of the road at another intersection.
