Canelones, Canelones, Uruguay
on May 5, 2013.
The ciudad of Canelones celebration of its 200th year anniversary had a day of activities including a parade and concert in the park. After watching the parade we wandered around the park to watch the rugby practice and see the zoo and as we left the concerts were about to begin. Hearing the warmup it was not exactly the music we would like to hear, but the crowd seemed as if they were going to enjoy it.
Canelones is like most other small towns in uruguay in design… 1 main square with a church, police, store, bank. Then a secondary square that is not really used. It is one of the cleaner cities in Uruguay as some of the residents try to make a difference.
