East Coast Style


I've been more than a little tardy with my blog posts, I'll admit. But we've finally made it to the BEACH, and its hard to pull yourself away from the beach to the computer...

After sky diving, we made our way down to Buenos Aires. Highlights of Buenos Aires were an all-you-can eat barbecued meat buffet and tango lessons. The buffet was ridiculous. I'd say between the 3 of us we probably cumulatively ate the equivalent of a quarter of a cow.

We then took a really fast ferry (it looked like a speeding bullet boat) across an expanse of water to Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay. Uruguaians pronounce it Your-oo-gashz. Montevideo, as seen in the above picture, had a beautiful central square and beautiful sunny weather. We went on a really nice bike ride along the water front to the local beach.

Finally, we took a bus to a beach called Punta del Este. Its like South American's version of Cancun. It was low season while we were there, so things weren't too crazy, but the beach was warm and body surfing was fun.


Tonight we should be making our way into the final country along our journey: Brazil. Hello paradise!
