Florianópolis

I know it is not in Uruguay but far north. Hope you don't mind the exception to this blog's geographical scope. It has beaches, at any rate. Lots of beaches. And -sometimes- it doesn't even rain!

There is a nice public market with funny middle-aged people doing their regular domino game and sipping coconut milk.

Fishing boats, so you don't really feel out of the place.

  1. Nice shots. Looks like a great place to explore with the camera. Zooming in on the satellite view, it seems like quite a lot of the coast has been devoted parks.

  2. It is a great place for photography. They have established a national park in the east coast, in the Rio Vermelho area, to preserve the Atlantic Forest environment. Glad they did it!
