... SO THE RAIN FALLS...

Cabo Polonio, Rocha, Uruguay.
The sky turned a dark shade of grey. It´s pouring rain, now. A pre springish storm...

GOLDEN HOURS

... This sunset is so perfect and I just wanna have you here with me... 
I used to think that every time the golden hours of the day found me somewhere in Uruguay, usually hanging on the terraces or the boardwalk. 
February´s assigment for La vuelta al mundo was Las Horas Mágicas. 
Golden hour by the water Vanishing light Golden hours in Piriápolis You light the sky up above me The last Uruguayan sunset Underwater

PUNTA DEL ESTE... I DON´T REALLY GET ALL THE FUZZ ABOUT IT...

For somebody who likes the sea a lot, I´m not a staying-on-the-beach-sunbathing-under-the-scorching-sun kind of person.
You see, I´m thinking there must be some lost vampire along the line of my ancestors and I inherited its pale skin. So I basically burst in flames under the sun.

Therefore it was pretty obvious I wasn´t going to spend the entire afternoon on the beach with not even a single tree to hide under at noon on a very hazy day of November. 
I grabbed a city map from the tourist office and walked to the southern point of Punta del Este to find the lighthouse. And once I found it and took photos of it, I walked all the ay back to the Playa Brava but I choose to do so by the quieter coast of Playa Mansa. The only thing quiet about Playa Mansa is the water! Other than that, it´s rather noisy with many cars on the streets, tourist from everywhere wandering around, restaurants, bars and tall buildings.
