We went to Punta del Este a few weeks ago and enjoyed our time there. We hope you enjoy our adventure. I could also use some constructive feedback to challenge myself for my next video. It's the first time using Corel Videostudio x9 and found it to be the studio I plan to keep. I already started editting our next video of Montevideo, Uruguay. Wish you all a lovely day!!

Nice job Melissa. So easy on the eyes... Ha

You certainly captured some amazing scenery.

But you both look like you're dressed for winter....?



Must get cool at night...

Especially if you live in Florida.... Wow, what a mess.

Been there, done that.  3 tropical storms in 6 weeks one year in Key West.  20 years of typhoons and tourists was enough for me.  I'm sure once the winds die, the drones will really help people get a view of what the results are before roads can be unblocked.  
It is unfortunate in circumstance, but an opportunity for drone owners to show the positive resources that quadcopter can employ, from surveying damage, to search and rescue.

It would take a mighty powerful drone, to fly there today. 115m/h winds, and the worst hasn't even reached land yet. I feel bad for the millions of folks who are affected by this storm...

Hey RedHotPoker,

I'm glad you liked it. Yeah, it's winter over here so we are all bundled up. We were in Uruguay for 2 months. Now we're enjoying Argentina for a bit.

It must be nice, winter with no snow, icy roads, or freezing temperatures.  

That has to be tough to handle? Haha

Hi Capt Whitefoot,

You definitely got to check out Uruguay sometime. Jason ended up buying property in Punta de Diablo. It's a beautiful coast all along this country so you'll enjoy a lot of culture and views.

PS. It's very unfortunate what's happening in Florida and Texas. Tough times

Keep making videos like that, and you'll have more Americans moving there.  A lot of people are learning they can stretch their retirement money further when they live outside the U.S.  No doubt, Uruguay has a lot to offer.

LOL, well, I mean AFTER the storm.  

Beautiful footage

I've been watching the news all day, as the hurricane approaches land. Flooding and damage have already been recorded, and this is only the front... Wait until it really starts to approach civilization.

Counting the $billions in damage...

It's so true!! It's better to retire outside of the States and live more comfortable by making your dollar stretch. I lived in Bolivia for 3 years and that's definitely a country that's cheap and peaceful. The only minus is that's it's a land locked country, but not everyone needs a beach to be happy.

I actually spent all day working on my next video. I hope to make this a weekly thing. It's a great hobby.

Impressive! Thanks for sharing with us. Wish you have a nice journey.

Great job Melissa
