I just got back from the Banda Oriental, also called Uruguay, which is just as action-packed and wacky as it sounds. Montevideo is an odd and pleasant place; it has a very profound forgotten, resigned kind of feel to it, like time just stopped there in the 70s. I also went to this incredible -really, incredible- little placed called Cabo Polonio that was recommened by an Argentine friend. It's pretty much an old fishing village, tiny, isolated, next to a huge colony of sea lions, and surrounded by desolate, wonderful beaches. Quite a place.

Uruguay me cayó muy bien. Now I'm back in BsAs...for only THREE DAYS. *sound of head exploding*
