Day 80: A rat in Uraguay

Port of Call: Montevideo, Uraguay
Excursions: J and J's parents went on a city bus tour. I decided to opt out of the bus tour and walk around town on my own.
Brief Thoughts: I much prefer Montevideo to Buenos Aires. The city seems more friendly, cleaner, smaller and safer. This is a city I'd be very interested in returning to in the future.

1. Once I got off the boat, I saw a big bulletin board advertising the route of the offical city walking tour. This route is patrolled by the "tourist police" on virtually every other block.
2. The flea market at Plaza Matriz
3. A tree-lined walkway in Plaza Matriz
4. Sarandi - a pedestrian street
5. 19 de Julio - a huge avenue that cuts through the middle of Montevideo
6. A random apartment building
7. A statue of Jose Gervasio Artigas in Plaza de la Independencia.
8. A man fishing along the waterfront in Montevideo
9. Locals relaxing near the water
10. Our ship - RCCL Radiance of the Sea
11. A view of the city from the Radiance
12. Montevideo as we're sailing away
13. Our towel animal for today - I think it's a rat.
