One of the most exciting experiences in my life was traveling to Uruguay in South America in June of 2005, through the end of August. I stayed with a family of four mama, papa, Guillermo, and baby. They had an older sister, Michelle she was already married and living with her husband. Papa was a T. V. and radio announcer. The schools were closed at that time, so the young people spent every day walking around the city and talking about everything we could think of life, relationships, the future, and religion. One of the most interesting features in the city was el Cerro, which means "the hill”; it was the only real hill in Montevideo at the top we had an amazing view of the city. I brought the following in a picnic for the trip: tortillas, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese. Someday I hope to take my own family on a trip like this one.
