Monday, January 8, 2007

Yesterday morning we took a bus 2 hours to the capitol "Montevideo" and have just checked into the hotel.  Will be staying here for about 2 days and then moving the Gold Coast of Uruguay stopping at cities along the way. Sun, beach, food and drinking and site seeing is the plan.  We need the rest!

Montevideo, city, capital of Uruguay a spacious community with broad boulevards, it is the nation's largest city and its principal economic, administrative, and cultural center. Most of Uruguay's meat & wool-processing plants and other manufacturing establishments are located in the metropolitan area. The city also has a large fishing industry, and its port handles the bulk of the nation's foreign trade.
