MONTEVIDEO!



Sniffing sea salt we jumped out the ferry - the large vessel we´d boarded in Buenos Aires Port, early that morning & Montevideo welcomed us.

Lovely city, homely atmosphere, music the air, scent of just-cut-grass: HOLA!

Map in hand, Bruce directed the taxi driver to Matthew´s place. Bruce is pretty good for desciphering maps & unsual locations. For sure he was born to know where is North, South, East & West, at one blink. Getting used to South American taxi drivers, bus drivers & drivers in general, he just smiled at me. The pleasure of being a tourist....Ohmygod!


Matthew & Fernanda embraced us & off we went for a real feast at Ël Mercado del Puerto
Liz, Garry, Patrick, Rebecca, Chris seemed to be local for the way they ordered ´´parrillada con chorrizo, langostinos, chancho...with lots of  pebre!

And of course ´´cervezas bien heladitas por favor.´´

One sleep before their wedding, we all sang till the wee hours. But my heart bled the following day.

I discovered the horror in Japan.
Mamaaaaaaa
