Danny's farm in Punte del Este

Kyle- my post on dannys farm did not publish for some reason. We have had some internet issues. Hopefully this improves in Brazil so we can post more pictures/videos. Anyways we spent the day at dannys farm in Punte del este. The farm is very beautiful and covers a lot of land. It is very quiet and relaxing and it is several miles from the city. There are lots of cows and some horses here and no other people for miles.It is much different from where we stayed in Montevideo because we are miles away from the city. We bbq here for dinner and now must rest up as we leave for Brazil in the morning.

Danny - We arrived to Punta after an eventful couple of days in Montevideo, Rodrigo was a gracious host and we met some great new people, (shout out to max, rosina and stephania). The road to Punta was eas,y stopping along the way to show Kyle the sights of the normally bustling resort city (deserted in the winter). Had lunch in La Barra at Barra Alta the only place open year around. Mario, a family friend who lives there year around joined us for a bit and warned us about our trip ahead. He had done the trip various times and said the roads in Brazil were good but truck convoys, high traffic and the mountains wouldnt help, especially not at night(it was already 2pm). We made the decision to spend the night at the farm, have a traditional asado (uruguayan bbq), relax and rest up for our long trip. Since its winter down here, we fired up the fire place, got the parrillada (grill) going and buckled in for a chilly but quiet night of rest on the farm known as "Panorama".


Thats Daniel in the picture, he is at the farm year around and joined us for the night drinking Pilsen (Uruguayan beer) listening to Cumbia (like country music) and ate about half a cow.
