We returned last night from our wonderful trip to Punta Del Este, Uruguay. It is a magical peninsula, with the coast on one side and calm waters on the other. We stayed at a hostel called 1949 that was right off the water and really nice. We sat our lazy bum bums on the beach and parked it all day. Most of the kids burned, but I could hardly catch a tan! Still, it was a wonderful weekend of relaxing in the sun with friends. Also, I had an amazing steak! Funny that I left Argentina to get some great beef! The exchange rate in Uruguay was 24.5 to the US dollar, so we all felt like we were tossing around monopoly money for a bit there.
They have a cool sculpture on the beach that looks like an enormous hand reaching out to grab beach-goers. Also, when we went to the marina to check out the boats, the local fisherman were cleaning up and selling the catch of the day. There were gigantic sea-lions waiting in the marina with their mouthes open to catch the leftovers! So cool!
I hope all is well back home,
Gotta go do homework!
I LOVE YOU!
