Here's a set of placemarks for all the stops in The Motorcycle Diaries, the movie about a 1952 motorcycle trip through South America by Ernesto (Che) Guevara and Alberto Granada. The placemarks contain some movie spoilers but eh, we all know what happened eventually.

Politics take a back seat to incredible scenery in this movie. Ernesto is a young, idealistic medical student - his future as a revolutionary/household name/t-shirt icon is years away, although his awakening to that future was born on this trip. At heart this is really a stunning travelogue and a roadtrip/buddy movie. It was based on books about the trip by both Guevara and Granada, now 83, who was involved in making the movie.

Setting out for a grand adventure


Crossing Lago Frias from Argentina into Chile


Crossing Chile's Atacama Desert


Overwhelmed by Machu Picchu


Leaving the San Pablo leper colony in Peru


Director Walter Salles, the real Alberto Granado (who is played by Rodrigo De La Serna), and Gael Garcia Bernal who plays Ernesto Guevara


Some placemarks are duplicates of priors.. including one by me but hey, I am adding new info )
