On to Piriapolis

Piriapolis is a much older and established resort town than Punta del Este.  Most of the buildings reflect architecture from the first half of the 20th century, and it's on the river side of Uruguay.  The beaches are beautiful and it has a long boardwalk.  We stopped there on the way back from Punta.  In a lot of ways, I prefer Piriapolis.  It's much more centered and much less glitzy.
