Uruguay

Staying near the village of Rodriguez, with Suzie, an expat Tasmanian, after the first afternoon in Montevideo, a mix of architecture and living standards. Beautiful old buildings derelict, while some areas are being redeveloped, including modern shopping centres. A mix of old and new cars, and the rubbish being taken away by horse and cart. Whilst at lunch, the rear car window was smashed, and all my stuff taken. I had phone, wallet and one passport in my pocket! After a short time the police arrived, took as many details as we could translate and left us. 15 minutes later, the police called, and Suzie was able to establish they had recovered my laptop bag, including iPad and Aus passport!!
Now back in town buying clothes etc.
