Uruguayos

For a little summer vacation, we headed across the pampas (or more accurately above) to the nation of Uruguay.  We stayed in the capital Montevideo and hit the beach towns of Punta del Diablo and Cabo Polonio.

Walking along the Ramblas  in Montevideo.



 



In El Mercado del Puerto where they grill any cut of meat you can think of right in front of your eyes.

Walking between beaches in Punta del Diablo.


Parque Nacional de Santa Teresa.

Ñandu!


Fortaleza de Santa Teresa

Look who's peeking her head out!


Electricity free Cabo Polonio.

Well it's electricity free if you don't include the massive lighthouse.




On top of the truck back to modern conveniences.

Little Austrians in the Big City


The Maders came to visit from Austria.  They had quite a trip, lots of walking, wine, and aweonao.  Below are some photos, primarily taken by Eva's mother Christine, from Santiago, Valparaiso, and Farellones.

Chile's finest products in Chile's finest city.





An apt metaphor.

Good job Eva!  Keep your eyes peeled, those sneaky condors can strike at any moment.
