20th Dec 10 - Montevideo, Uruguay

A short (c120 mile) sail from Buenos Aires to Montevideo and a different country - Uruguay.

Plaza Independencia...

...with its 30-ton statue of General Gervasio Artigas - 'The Father of Uruguay'. Note building in background with its multitude of AC units!

'The Covered Wagon' - a very famous piece of statuary

Government House

A courtyard at Pittamiglio Castle - a weird building built by noted 'alchemist' Humberto Pittamiglio.

We were treated to a tango show. This time Elizabeth was invited to dance and did VERY well!
