I found a photo from the last time our daughter was in Uruguay. Calle de los Suspiros, Colonia. We took a day trip over on the ferry from Buenos Aires. Lots of memories in this photo. A bit of a strange pose going on there, and why her brother was sitting on the street, I really don't know! It was a hot day, I remember that much. :-)
We had a good chat with her last night from Punta del Este. There have been many highs and lows over the last 29 days. She's resting up now and was looking forward to sleeping in a hotel bed last night!
24 years ago 1999. How time flies? Great photo. Nothing like travel and adventure. These days people live in a state of fear. Wonderful picture taking people back to the days of adventure and exploration
Congratulations to your daughter, what an adventure. A long time at sea can be a bit of a roller coaster, in more ways than one. After 29 days did she wobble when she first stood on dry land ? My longest voyage was 27 days in a smaller boat, and I didn't notice any loss of balance when I first stood on shore, a big disappointment really.
@kjarn Yes, I suspect that's about right ... she did like to control her little bro. She couldn't do that today, he's about a foot and a half taller than her now!
I see a bicycle standing against the wall in the distance and imagine that on a rough street like this, it would be a VERY bumpy ride.
Lovely that you were able to have a chat with your daughter. What an adventure she's having! I can only imagine how good a real hotel bed would feel at this point.
