Montevideo, Uruguay

The good thing about being in Uruguay is that you’re not in Brazil. We’re in Montevideo, which appears to be quite a sizable port. Line guys, agents and other folk rumor about a grand cathedral called Catedral Matriz not four blocks away from the port. Standing on deck I see the steeples of at least five grand churches and the Catedral Matriz is probably one of them. But duty calls, and while my bank account slightly swells, I turn a cold shoulder to this luring town and head back to the dungeons.
