More Pics from Uruguay

Thought I would share a few more pics from our Thanksgiving weekend in Punta Del Este and Jose Ignancio. Above is the lighthouse on the same beach as La Huella restaurant in Jose Ignancio. (Best viewed large!)

It is a good surfing beach. The dad and brother of one of my daughters classmates happened to be surfing there while I was taking these pics.

My New Flickr Friends in BA: Safari BA

1435446130_d2bf36d44d.jpg

I hooked up with a Flickr group here in BA and went to my first Flickr meetup on Sunday. The group is SafariBA:reloaded. We went to a wildlife park about an hour northwest of the city by bus. Temaikén is on par with the better zoos and wildlife parks in the U.S.—only without all the commercialism.

The photo above is not mine. It is from one of the other members (muchas gracias Martín). I'm the one making the "I" in the pic.

Most of the group spoke only castellano. However, a few were able to translate for me. Also, another expat who hooked be up with the group came along. We had a good time and took some great pics. Be sure to check out my Flickr photos from the trip.

Thanks again to:
