Arrived in Montevideo this morning

Arrived in Montevideo at about 10 a.m. Monday morning. When the plane touched down after the nine hour flight from Miami, everyone on board broke into applause. I'd forgotten that it's often customary for Latin Americans to clap when the plane lands safely so we all joined in with the locals.

Approaching Montevideo. It was 37° F when we landed. During the day, it felt like an autumn day in Maine, about 50°.

Welcome to Uruguay, first stop is Immigrations area.
