iceblueshoes thanks for the report so far. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Montevideo. I thought it was a fascinating and underrated place.

If you're still there, please drink some delicious Uruguayan Tannat red wine for me, I crave it. Oh, and I recommend the guided tour of the Palacio Salvo, it's fascinating.
Hey,
sorry for the delay in uploading/updating, but I did try some Tannat and even brought back a bottle.
I'm actually in Santiago now but trying to fight off a bit of a cold and hoping it doesn't get any worst.
This is really throwing my plans in a loop.
In fact my plans for Montevideo were also thrown out the window. I'll try to update with Uruguay and at least Buenos Aires today.
