Uruguay for a day

While in BA we did a day trip to Colonia del Sacremento, a small town in Uruguay just an hour´s ferry ride across the (murky brown) Rio de la Plata (river). Colonia was founded by the Portuguese in 1860 to smuggle goods across the river to BA and is now a popular tourist destination full of cobbled streets and an assortment of colourful houses.

A very cute town, definitely worth a visit!
