Colonia, Uruguay

From the beautiful beaches of eastern Uruguay Katie and I backtracked through Montevideo, staying there for another couple of days. From Montevideo we traveled another couple of hours to Colonia de Sacramento, a beautiful town just opposite of Buenos Aires on the Rio Plata. We stayed there for a night then took off the next morning for Buenos Aires. Colonia was a beautiful town with tree lined and cobble stoned streets. It was cool to walk the city, see the old fort, climb up the light house, and visit all of the funky shops and restaurants. The next morning we braced ourselves for another rough boat ride, but the water was smooth and there were no problems at all getting back to Buenos Aires.
