I am now in the sunny city of Montevideo in Uruguay, after crossing the Rio Plate from Argentina. After leaving Ushuaia I travelled up the Atlantic Coast of Argentina, stopping at Puerto Madryn to ride my bike out to a headland to see southern right whales playing in the bay..they were so close that when I was sitting on the beach I could hear the sound of their fins hitting the water as they played in the shallows..
I then went back to the lively city of Buenos Aires for a week, staying in the tango district of San Telmo. Really enjoyed being back in the city again..met some locals and was looked after very well for the week, taken to barbeques, the theatre and danced tango at a milonga with some very experienced dancers who were very patient with a rather clumsy blonde girl in jeans and trainers who struggled mostly with keeping the serious face that is required for tango..
Uruguay is a lovely surprise. The people are friendly, the towns are quiet and travel and food is cheap.. I am in Montevideo for the next few days, travelling with three lovely Costa Rican guys, before I head further around the coast to La Paloma and Punta del Diablo as spring gets fully underway over here..
What´s that? It´s cold over there?
