Aaron's First Solo Walk Around Montevideo

So i'll start by saying I got lost real quick, but I did that on purpose. That's my story and i'm sticking to it!

 In our local neighborhood Punta Carretas Defensor Sporting Club is a top Uruguayan Futbol division club which we have adopted as our team! Go Violets! Go Tuertos!
This isn't actually their stadium but rather an athletic club for the organization.  The stadium is on the other side of  Parque Rodo... very near by
Estadio Luis Fanzini
This obviously is a secondary relationship to my primary one with ARSENAL F.C. GO GUNNERS!


A few pictures from Parque Rodo (a large park near our apartment)


Looking from the park onto the Rio de la Plata (big ass river between Uruguay and Argentina)
The park host artist exhibits year round. here I caught a picture of a piece of art depicting a woman, with a live human man standing behind in the perfect position to be her legs... art meets real life!
A historian kicking around the futbol... made think of my dad

 The beach along the Rio de la Plata


 A University
 La Rambla (aka a boardwalk that goes all around the portion of the city that boarders the Rio de la Plata, which is extensive



And now a collection of street graffiti
