Here is a quiet, little, or somewhat large beach on the outskirts of Montevideo, Uruguay. I love Uruguay!!!!! A bit more expensive than Argentina, but worth it...and when I say "a bit" its like pennies more.
We are in Punta del Este here, its about 2 hours outside out Montevideo- a tourist trap, but lovely, hot and full of sun!
Dan came to visit in March and was exstatic to go and eat at the Kosher McDonalds, but didn`t want to make it obvious that he was SOOO excited. He posed for a couple of pictures but insisted that I hurried up. Of course, making a spectacle of him was fun, so I took my time before indulging in my first kosher fries. --they taste different.
I don`t know the other 2 clowns but I ran into my wonderful Spanish teacher at the St. Patricks Day party- lots of foreigners there.....
Note to self: NOT a good idea to have an open tap at the table.
Here she is, Casa Rosada. Only kept vibrant pink on one of her 4 sides- she is lovely.
I think the only reason the people in this picture are looking around is to see what I was taking a picture of. It really didn`t startle them at all that someone had a 1/4 of beef on their back walking casually through the shop, or is it a 1/2 a cow?
Tranquilo... here someone took the lovely landscape of the park to make their home.
I got to visit Negro`s catering kitchen when his boss (who`s never met me but hates me) was out of town. He put me to work cutting strawberries, mixing stuff and other monumental tasks. It was really fun for both of us. I got to see what his work was like and he got to pose for some very fun pictures with his accomplice Manu. (no, not Chau)
Token sunset picture from Uruguay... if you look real close, or with a magnifying glass, the city of Buenos Aires is a silouette in front of the sun stretching far on each side.
Here`s Argentinas National Symphonic Orchestra playing in a prime location in the city. In the middle of the worlds widest street. Unfortunately a prime location for suicide divers also. Talking with Neil the other day I found out that the lunch-havers in a corner cafe had witnessed a spectacle when a woman`s body went
thud from the 9th story and landed in front of the cafes doors. Luckily, she hit no one but herself. Wonder if she regretted it in the air. bummer.
Being the girlfriend of a up and coming world reknowned chef definately has its advantages- like other chef friends and free passes into the backs of kitchens and secret recipes and stuff :) weeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO sushi man, GO!

Words of avice to increase your credibility:
Before you speak of culinary skills, you should think twice of posting a picture of the said cook crapping into a garbage can?!?! Something to think about.
Brother Dave
