Unusual travel destinations

[brett]

Currently in Montevideo for the weekend between rapanui, antarctic cruise, and our big Patagonia journey. Initial impressions are positive, which means we may come back. (DW looking for a returnable winter destination for many trips, and we haven't found it yet.)

Looking at various suggestions above, we really enjoyed Tonga, although it was essentially a dedicated swim with humpbacks for a week trip. So too, diving in Solomon's (marovo lagoon) was great--on par with fiji and new guinea).

Egypt was ok in early 2021; we'd say no reason to delay. But driving around Jordan was better, in our opinion.

Good luck on managing that wish list!

We went to Montevideo with the same intention of finding a good spot to spend winters. Spent time in Punta Del Este. We very much enjoyed our ten days in the country.

The other reason was we were flying in from Santiago. Air to BA was $300. Air to Montevideo on a discount airline was $75. and the sched was much better. We very much enjoyed Uruguay.
