After five or so nights in BA, we struck out for Uruguay. I guess I thought Uruguay would be fairly provincial, lower income and less appointed. All wrong. It's totally posh and infallibly gorgeous.
We flew to Montevideo, and rented a car, driving about 200 KM to Jose Ignacio, which is kind of like Montauk meets Nantucket. With Guachos.
Strong hire for those considering a junket to SA.
