... I think we all would have enjoyed it. <br><br>After failing to find the correct bus to get the Memory Museum, and having it get far too late after a 3pm lunch saturated in cheese (everyone´s meal was drowning in cheesy goo), I gave up and went shopping at some artisan shops. Got some regalos and came home. We went to a nice dinner and went out at a club called the Stomping Pony until 3am.

... point lol. By the time we went to his friend party we weren't speaking and so had to keep painting on the false smile and acting normal when his mates were around. In the end we sorted things out and went to the club to meet Mauricio and his fella, and watch Rodrigo Djing. I like Rodrigo as he makes me laugh and really makes the effort tto communicate with me but his mixing was terrible. Every time he brought in a new ...

... in the shade of a large tree as Ismael insists it's bad to go in the sun between the hours of 1pm and 5pm, especially as I am not olive skinned lol. I keep trying to explain that I have been out of the country for 4 months and if I go back without a tan I will get ribbed but he's having none of it lol. First to arrive was "Pink Top" (you will have to excuse the lack of names but they were all very complicated and ...

I have decided to check out Uruguay for a few days before continuing my travels in Argentina. The journey over here was pretty cool- and in the same style as my travels in this part of South America... it was in style! :) I took a boat directly from Buenos Aires to Colonia, Uruguay where I connected with a ...

Punta del este. So my first time in punta del este was 3 years ago i have returned 3 years later to find it insainly expensive a hostel bed ...

... so I didn't expect to be able to get in at all. When I went around the back, a lady sitting down in the shade, supervising some school children asked me if I wanted to see inside. She was their English teacher, and said to go into the school next door and ask for someone to open the church for me. So I did. I got pointed to an office at the end of a corridor, and a lady inside simply handed me the key and told me which door it ...

... family has restored. Wish we could have seen it, but we didn´t think to ask. One wine is named ¨Virginia¨ for the owner´s wife. The owner´s father runs a vineyard just down the road; Hector and Virginia have four children, the oldest 15. We ended up in a very cozy room, lined with awards (two won the world´s 1st prize in a huge competition recently) and certificates extolling the wines grown here, for a little tasting. This was my first visit to a ...

Montevideo is the capital of Uruguay and the last country on this trip. I plan on spending the last two weeks of my vacation relaxing on the famous beaches of Uruguay. Unfortunately, I do not have any more photos from my trip. I lost the last three and a half weeks worth of photos three days before I flew home. They say Uruguay is the safest city in South America but I somehow managed to get mugged in front of the police station on a Sunday morning. I'm guessing by a cop. LOL
