Piriapolis

Here we are, back on the east coast in the beautiful town of Piriapolis. This town is described as "vaguely reminiscent of a Mediterranean beach town and arguably Uruguay's most picturesque coastal resort". It also (if you squint your eyes and open your ears) is vaguely reminiscent of Grand Bend and Wasaga! Crazy place and a fantastic town to people watch. We've seen pretty much everything on the beach here! Yiikes! I think I'll wear that thong after all!!!
We have a little cabin a few blocks from the ocean (which is actually the mouth of the Rio de la Plata river in Colonia) and it is adorable. I will attempt to get some pics loaded however I'm finding that WiFi here is really slow and I'm reminded of some of my experiences in Oz.
We'll be here for a week and will leave Sunday for the beaches further east where we will be in a cabin in a much more secluded area.

Only good things to say about Uruguay! Super place!!! Ok ....back to Spanish class...

Here's the beach!
The fellow below rides around town all day with taped advertising blasting out of the loudspeakers. It is hilarious!

Love to everyone!
