This lady is called Marisa.
We stayed with her in her apartment in Montevideo. She spoke little English so we had to try and speak Spanish.
Sometimes we all burst into laughter as we were all totally bamboozled.
Discovered Patricia beer today. ...very nice
37 degrees today...phew
Her you can see Mario with his thumbs up in the air. Beside him is his humble shop assistant.
Our camera broke down and we walked into Mario's shop to see if they sold camera's.
They didn't sell cameras but quickly rang a friend who provided cameras for inspection. Service with a smile and we were impressed by their sense of wanting to help out. Gave us a warm feeling on our first day in the city.
Montevideo is a charming place with laid back people and a very European feel.
People going about their business earning a living. Exchange here is 30 pesos for 1 USD.
A bus ticket for a 4 hour trip is only $20 USD. On Monday we travel to Chuy on our cheap tickets going by the coast road.
Linda's feet are sore from all the walking around sight seeing. She has cement pills in her handbag.
