from Uruguay. Now the museum is very odd because you walk around and get to see the art this man designed and most of it is really nice and the odd part is how he was so famous and distinguished as most of his work I could do. Now you get to see his art which is everywhere and some wooden toys he designed which I admit are extremely cute and very cool. The price for going around this place is £15 so around 450 pesos per person. There are several floors to look around as well and the one downside is everything is labelled in Spanish only so that is something to watch out for.

But in this large country there are hundreds of towns, villages and hamlets full of fascination and history; and I wish to take you around the country to discover its beauties that I have visited during the last 40 years.
200 kilometers west of Minneapolis and closed to the border between Minnesota and South Dakota where the Chippewa river feeds the Minnesota river I found Montevideo, a town of about seven thousand inhabitants.
I have asked to some inhabitants if there is any link with Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay. Yes, was the answer. The two cities are twinned and every year in Montevideo, Minnesota there is the celebration of the "FIESTA DAYS" (honestly I ...
