200 KM from Buenos Aires.
Today is the only day we will be in Uraguay, the capital Montevideo. This is a port where we can walk off the ship, so very easy. We normally book tours on our own, but the ship had a very inexpensive trip to show us the highlights so we went with that. Again it reinforces our decisions to not book tours from the ship, big buses that all follow each other around. It takes forever for people to get on and off the bus just to take a picture.

| Our guide was very excited to see rain, it has been a long time since any rain. It only lasted about 20 minutes |

| At the end of the tour we had the option to get off the bus at a market that was easy walking distance back to the ship, needless to say we took advantage of it. |
 |
| Pedestrian street that was fun to explore |
 |
| Of course Andre found ice cream |
 |
| Beer found as well, stopped for a break and some free wifi |
 |
| Mate, we will come to see this tea type drink all over South America. |

| Another cruise ship in port, I think we saw only 2 other cruise ships the entire 2 weeks |
