On vacation

La pedrera- Uruguay

We spent wonderful days on our vacation in Uruguay. In La Pedrera La Pedrera is a small, quiet and exclusive seaside resort, located on a rocky margin of the Atlantic coast of Uruguay, 230 kilometres away from Montevideo. Owing to the coastal cliff it is said that La Pedrera is a truly beautiful balcony facing the sea. Moreover, watches and mirrors are useless in this relaxing place since people eat whenever they are hungry and wear whatever clothes they wish to.

We rent a beautiful and cozy house on the woods , quite near to the beach. We read books, play games and rest a lot. Without TV or Internet connection (for some weird thing , the connection failure) And of course I cooked in a small and beautiful kitchen. I found a lovely and delicious blue potato that want to share with you the recipe of a tasty blue soup. Soon I will post it Have a wonderful week
