I had high hopes for Uruguay. My expectations were met. Montevideo, the southern most capital city in
this hemisphere was much smaller than Buenos Aires. It was much more manageable. Once getting off the ship, I took a jog on
the Rambla – a biking/walking/jogging the length of the city on the river. It
carried on for miles upon miles – literally.
Before understanding the length of the Rambla, I thought I would do the
whole thing. After four hours of jogging
and walking, I headed into the city for breakfast. From here, I traversed just about the whole
of the ne and old city before reaching the ship to shower and change for
supper.
Day 2 was spent on a Semester at Sea trip to visit museums
and the beach resort town of Punta Del Este.
Not much to report from here except that vacationing in Punta Del Este
needs to be on the list if you are interested in a genuine beach vacation.
The last day was another city day of walking around, eating,
walking some more, eating some more, spending the last of the pesos, etc.
