Montevideo, Uruguay


The Parliament building. I took most of these pictures in Montevideo from the cab. I thought this one came out quite nice, I just cropped off the street to give it a more dramatic look.

Carreta Monument, a statue to the cattlemen who founded the country.

Montevideo beach. I do want to mention, that regardless of what it may seem like the weather may look like when looking at the photos, at no time did the temperature ever drop below 82 F (27 C) during the day. Most days it was 87-89 F (31-32 C) The day we got to Rio it was 92 F(32C). So it was a nice warm vacation for the end of February and early March. The Atlantic ocean was also calm as can be.
