Punta del Este

January 16th, 2018 – Sunday 

Peter and Alicia left the camping place earlier. Now they will travel alone. Peter has to work on Tuesday so they have to arrive in BH earlier.

Yesterday we went into Brazil. How good returning home is! Going traveling is good but returning home is better. We are enjoying our trip very much. It’s the first time we travel camping in a motor home. We liked a lot. Although it is small, we have everything we need inside of it. If we are hungry we open the fridge and there is juice, yogurt, a sandwich, fruit. If we want to go to the bathroom we stop the car anywhere and use the toilet. 

Besides in camping place we know different people, talk to them. It is very interesting. 

In Punta del Este There was a big motorhome parked near our place. We were curious to know about it so we went there. The owners are very nice. They showed us inside. It is marvelous, very big and everything very organized. There is a very big living room with two sofas which transform in double beds, a beautiful carpet, wine cellar, a bathroom, a big bedroom with cupboards, mirror. There is a kitchen with many cupboards too, a stove and a sink. There was a pretty dog too. We loved everything. The couple are very kind. We noticed that they were catholic because there were saints hanged on the wall. The man had just read Padre Leo’s book. They have all Padre Leo’s speaches, about 160. Finally they told us they have a daughter who  is a nun. That’s interesting how God guides us to so interesting people. We got their cell phones. We will be their friends. 

We liked the place. There is a 24hrs. bank. The restaurant is good and a lot of trucks stopped there. So we talked to the manager and he told we could stop there. There is water and light to truck drivers.             

We parked our van there. Some minutes later we went jogging. Two motorhomes arrived. We talked to them. In Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina people are used to camp. The highway which connects Chui to Camaquã is not good. It is a one-way highway. Before Gravataí it is dublicated.
