Interesting and helpful tips. We will have to check out the markets. Do you like mate'?
When I start taking trips to local dumps such as Centralia, I guess I'm ready to buy a ticket to somewhere...
Ah, Montevideo :-)) That bookstore sounds good !!
I've enjoyed your intelligent and enthusiastic tips on Uruguay read in preparation for a November visit. Thanks -bob
Hi Ellen! I enjoyed reading your tips about Montevideo; I plan to stop there first before going to BA in Sept. Manny
Hello Ellen! Next year (hopefully) I will be in Argentina and will also visit Uruguay, so going through your wonderful page on Montevideo was very useful for me and I will return for more. Happy Birthday from Finland!
Yet another city I really want to see, you go girl!
Enoyed your pages and enjoyed Uruguay. Yes, it would be great to restore some buildings in Ciudad Vieja!
Hm, what stopped me from going there was that I needed a visa. Looking at your page I wish I had it :)))
Interesting stuff, still trying to decide where to go!
