More Punta del Este Pictures

There's a lighthouse on the island a couple miles from the shore.  Here's a picture, with a seagull mimicing it.

Some surfing pictures.

 

And this is some wreckage really close to

the shore. It looks like it once was a metal fishing boat.

 

Punta del Este is the shore part of the town of Maldonado.  We went there, and this is a picture of the church on the main square in the background, and an old military base in the foreground.

Inside the military barracks was a display of the founders of the countries of the Americas.  Even George Washington was represented!
