After a few
days back with our family in El Pinar we moved onto glamourous/over-priced Punta del Este. Fortunately we were couchsurfing with someone so we didn't spend an arm and a leg on accomodation, although staying in Punta was no less 'pimp' 
than it should be.
Aldo shared with us his life of leather armchairs, fine wine, good whisky, nice cigars and steak. We even got a tour around the hotspots including local red light district and popped into the Conrad Casino to watch old ladies gamble away all their pension before we headed home for our own rendition of poker at a more affordable level (matchsticks and wine corks).
I didn't like Punta (too Miami dressed up in Uruguayan rags) but did enjoy the leather armchairs and Johnny Walker.
