We stopped for a weekend in sweet, historic Montevideo, Uruguay, a little city by the sea. Its highlights are incredible architecture and a 13 mile rambla along the coastline, the longest continuous sidewalk in the world, where we passed beaches and crashing waves and many many people enjoying their mate. We happened upon the opening of the latest show at Espacio De Arte Contemporaneo, an arts institution in a former prison, and got to sip Uraguayan wine, another highlight, with lots of exciting creative people. And… the pastries… dulce de leche is now a definite favorite on my list!
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain ***If you are looking at this on your phone and want to see posts from the countries I have writen about, scroll to the bottom and press "View web version" and look at the column of links on the right hand side.***
