We have arrived. The flight was long (9 hours). We departed finally at 7pm or so and arrived in Buenos Aires around 445am. From there we flew to Montevideo around 9am and arrived here around 10. Aerolineas Argentinas was OK, but I am really not so sure that the ham and cheese sandwich was necessary at 2am. This has never been one of my normal times of the day for eating a ham and cheese sandwich.
The Lonely Planet gave us a list of bus numbers that woulod take us downtown. we waited about 45 minutes without seeing a single one. After getting no help from a priest and only vague help from an airport employee, we jumped on a bus that said Montevideo on the front. 80 cents and with the help of a nice guy on the back of the bus, we arrived. We crashed for a couple of hours and are now ready to start exploring this new place. Hopefully the weather will clear up a little because right now the city is in a big cloud. (My hip is feeling much better, so I am ready to see the sights).
People here look just like us, however, I dont think we blend in as well as we might think we do.
Hopefully more pictures will be forthcoming.

Hi Tracy and Adam,
Hope you are enjoying Montevideo. Last year, we stayed on Rue Negro, just a few blocks from Old Town. Have a great trip, and if you get a chance, post a link to the site where you went to find your farms. Did you say that BIO-Uruguay is one of the farms on your list? We remembered you at Pullen Sunday!

I'm glad you've gotten there safely and are already experiencing exciting things. Could you add me to the "siblings" email list?
