| Our new home is a townhouse is just off of the Rambla. For those of you who don't know, La Rambla is Montevideo's waterfront promenade. It starts just outside the Port of Montevideo in the Old Town and stretches all the way to the eastern-most neighborhood of Carrasco. I'm not sure if it goes beyond the city limit or not since I have yet to leave Montevideo! One of these days I'll venture out of the metropolis into the "interior" as they call the rest of Uruguay.Here's a picture of the house from across the streetIt’s a townhouse in the old-fashioned, traditional sense. It has a small entry hall, then a cozy sunken living room that used to be a garage. From the living room there is a nice wooden staircase to the second floor. Or should I say the first floor since here they don't consider the ground floor to be the first floor. Well for now let's say that the floor you enter the house on is the first floor and when you go up the stairs you're on the second floor. I'm planning |
