When you look at secondary cities in Latin America, or secondary countries like Ecuador or the Galapagos Islands, people are going, it's a great active - and your dollar goes a long way. Uruguay - people don't often think of Uruguay, but there is a resort destination in Uruguay called Punta del Este. It's where the Argentineans go, so half of Buenos Aires gets up and leaves. It is a rocking destination, and beautiful. I was there a couple of months ago - there are exceptional restaurants, and a very good value. Most people have never been to Uruguay, and I would recommend it. One of the destinations that's really up and coming is Panama. Panama City's interesting - it can be a little dangerous, but if you're careful it is fine. It's the adventure side of Panama, to get out into the countryside of Panama, that's a good time for people to go, and you should consider it.
