So we (Dave & me, that is) are pondering a possible trip to South America next winter... current contenders include Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay, but I'd love to hear suggestions if anyone has them. It would be in the December/January time-frame, so weather is a factor, since that's the peak of summer for the far southern part of the continent. We're looking for culture, history, food & drink, a sprinkling of nature/adventure, and a portion of the trip spent on a beach in a hammock.
Welcoming all recommendations...
