DAIQUIRI EM PUNTA DEL ESTE
VERANO PUNTAESTEÑO VISTO POR UN GUANTANAMERO
FOTO LAURA LEGZ LEGAZCUE
Es pleno verano en Punta del Este. El sol pica la piel y el mar es más azul. El ambiente ha cambiado. Nos invaden los turistas argentinos y brasileños con sus descapotables Audi y Mercedes Benz. Es una delicia verlos circular por las calles a toda velocidad.
El Puesto de Lo de Cacho ha abierto para la temporada. La vista se alegra entre tanto verdor y el color de las frutas, algunas exóticas para mí.
Voy a la playa, a la Mansa que es más tranquila y tiene una mejor vista con la isla de Gorriti y los cruceros al frente. Han construido un pasillo de madera a lo largo de la playa donde los turistas de a pie pueden admirar la vista y pasear por toda la orilla. Yo llevo bermuda corta, remera y pantuflas y mi cámara foto digital.
No hay nadie bañándose a pesar del calor reinante. Bajo y me acerco a la orilla y meto las patas en el agua ¡Esta helada! ¿Cómo puede ser? Parece que la antártica está más cerca que los trópicos.
Hay sombrillas alineadas por todas partes donde se sientan a tomar el sol las clases más pudientes, sobre todo frente al casino Hotel del Conrad que tiene un parador en frente del otro lado de la rambla, cerca de la orilla y dos banderas anunciando el ron Habana Club para refrescarse con un daiquiri o un mojito cubano. Esto me recuerda mi tierra.
Veo las motos de agua alineadas cerca de la orilla listas para ser alquiladas. En el mar, a corta distancia, veo dos motos que compiten en una carrera loca y humeda hacia la eternidad si no frenan el paso.
Me detengo a deleitarme con un mojito. No son como los de Cuba, le falta lima como le gustaban a Hemingway en el Floridita de la Habana. De todos modos el hielo y la yerba Buena y el azucar hacen que el sabor sea delicioso. Lo tomo a sorbos, para que sea eterno, para que nunca se acabe.
El sol quema la piel, no me da tiempo a recorrer toda la playa hasta llegar al puerto donde se alinean yates lujosos y otros más discretos. Tiro algunas fotos para recordar aquella calurosa tarde en la playa en pleno verano de Punta del Este cuando sea más viejo, si Dios lo permite.

#Uruguay #puntadeleste SUMMER PUNTAESTEÑO SEEN BY A GUANTANAMERO
SUMMER PUNTAESTEÑO SEEN BY A GUANTANAMERO
It is full summer in Punta del Este. The sun bites the skin and the sea is bluer. The atmosphere has changed. We are invaded by Argentinian and Brazilian tourists with their convertible Audi and Mercedes Benz. It is a delight to see them roam the streets at full speed.
The Cacho's Post has opened for the season. The sight rejoices between so much greenness and the color of the fruits, some exotic for me.
I go to the beach, to La Mansa which is more quiet and has a better view with the island of Gorriti and the cruises to the front. They have built a wooden walkway along the beach where tourists on foot can admire the view and stroll along the entire shore. I wear short , t-shirt and slippers and my digital photo camera.
No one is bathing despite the prevailing heat. I go down to the shore and put my feet in the water. This frost! How can it be? It seems that Antarctica is closer than the tropics.
There are umbrellas lined up everywhere where the richest classes sit down to sunbathe, especially in front of the Casino Conrad Hotel which has a hostel in front of the other side of the promenade, near the shore and two flags announcing the rum Havana Club to cool off with a Cuban daiquiri or mojito. This reminds me of my land.
I see the water skis lined up near the shore ready to be rented. In the sea, at a short distance, I see two motorcycles competing in a mad and humid race towards eternity if they do not slow down.
I stop to enjoy a mojito. They are not like those of Cuba, they lack the file as Hemingway liked in the Floridita of Habana. Anyway, ice and yerba Buena and sugar make the taste delicious. I take it by sips, so that it is eternal, so that it never ends.
The sun burns the skin, I do not have time to travel all the beach until arriving at the port where lined luxury yachts and other more discreet. I take some photos to remember that hot afternoon on the beach in the middle of Punta del Este when I am older, if God permits.

ESPETO CORRIDO EN URUGUAY. En la noche del día de Reyes me invitaron a un Espeto Corrido aquí en Punta del Este. Ya yo veía como una plaza de toros, con las bestias negras y sudorosas entrando al ruedo.----- SPETO RUN IN URUGUAY. Three Kings Day. On the night of Reyes' Day, I was invited to a Espeto Corrido here in Punta del Este. I already saw like a bullring, with black and sweaty beasts entering the arena.-

-Vamos a tu casa, fulano-ese era yo,- que parece la cerveza y la diabetes se te han subido a la cabeza. Camino a casa empecé a trastabillar y le dije a mi cuñada. -Antes cuando bebía cerveza los tragos se me subían a la cabeza, ahora descienden a mis pies. No puedo caminar. ¡Ayy. Mamacita mía! Qué vida más loca. ¿Por qué me trajiste al mundo? Antes de acostarme me pregunté, pensando que aún estaba en Cuba: -¿Y los frijoles negros? ¡Bodeguero, descarado! Deme la ración de porotos digo de frijoles negros que aquí traigo la libreta de racionamiento. Y así pasó el feliz día de los Reyes Magos en Punta del Este. Uruguay. . Gracias a Dios que me porté racional y sobriamente. Dr Orlando Vicente Álvarez cubano uruguayo,genio clikea en https://www.amazon.com/Memorias-niño-guantanamero-Guantanamero-Spanish/dp/1520725884 .

CUANDO SENTI EL AMOR DE VERDAD WHEN I TRULY FEEL LOVEDespués la trajimos a Punta del este. Nos fuimos a la Playa La Mansa. Mamá Gloria con una bata de toalla y la Chiqui guiándola hacia el agua- mamá solo decia que estaba ciega cuando requería un mimo o una atención especial, así que todo el tiempo que estuvo en la playa la Chiqui la cuidaba dentro del agua, guiaba sus pasos y Gloria hinchada de placer Then we brought her to Punta del este. We went to La Mansa Beach. Mama Gloria with a toweling robe and the Chiqui guiding her towards the water- Mama only said that she was blind when she required a mime or special attention, so all the time she was on the beach the Chiqui took care of her in the water, she guided her steps and glory swollen with pleasure
