MONTEVIDEO TO PUNTE DEL ESTE &#8211; DRIZZLING AND WARM - 1.11.09<br><br>The Hostel Palermo had a beautiful marble staircase, the most posh thing about the place, the rest was very, very basic, and we had to carry all our luggage down the stairs to load up the bikes which were stored at the local undercover carpark. <br><br>By 10:30am we were loaded (we would have liked to get away earlier, but the mozzie fiasco left us a bit 'drained') and ...

Leaving Montevideo we decided to head to the coast. Uruguay's premier beach resort is Punta del Este, unfortunately premier means expensive and using our loaves and with a little help from the book, we decided that the best option would be to stay in Piriapolis. About 50 minutes away from Punta, Piriapolis is described as "vaguely reminiscent of a Mediterranean beach town". Having visited a few Mediterranean beach ...

... risk with the owner and an Irish couple who were staying in the room next to ours, it was alot of fun. This being a Friday night however, we decided to head out for a bit of a boogie and a shimmy. We didn´t realise just how stormy it was until we arrived at the pier where the pubs and clubs were located and saw the palm trees swaying in the gales and the rain sliding over the ground in sheets. We had a few drinks anyway and a bit of a dance. Great fun. Good way to kill a rainy ...

... or maybe its the same, but i just cant stop thinking about how much cheaper everything is in asia. Now i am in punta del este, pretty much the most touristy place in uruguay, however its off season, so its really mellow and sleepy, lots of shops and bars are slowly getting ready as peak season starts december 15th. I t hink i will be hanging out here for this week, as my parents head back to canada shortly and once they leave i won´t see them for a long time... As ...

... see so after a couple hours we decided to head on to Punta Del Este. We stayed at a really nice hostel there that was just a block from the beach and Darryl was finally able to get is some sun tanning at the beach. The water was quite cold but it was very beautiful. We found a great little sea food restaurant and walked along the beach side boardwalk for hours. After a ...

Now this is more like it....a town with some action! But ouch! You pay for it. Punta del Este is a famous beach resort town that South Americans flock to by the thousands during their summer vacation... which starts in like two weeks. The beach here is nice and the place has a cool vibe. I'd like to be here for the high season to see what it's like but prices for everything will skyrocket. But it was cool to get ...

... have had arriving on a Harley, disappeared when the women handled the money. The next night we stopped in San Jose Uruguay. Very nice hotel. Went for supper, and as I often found, the only size beer was the one liter bottles. This was not usually a problem, but that night I just did not feel like drinking much. I thought the answer might be to order the local drink...Espillinar, which is a cross between ...

... rain). But we had a great time no matter what, with lots of good food and drinks. And would you believe it, we even went out on the town drinking and dancing a few nights ;-) The relatively little time we got on the beach, we mostly spent on Mantra beach, our hotels own personal beach that also happens to be one of the most popular in Punta del Este (La Barra neighborhood). There's a couple of hundred meters walk from the hotel and down to the beach, so we just took ...
