Colonia, Uruguay

I caught the ferry from Buenos Aires across the Rio de la Plate and arrived in sunny Colonia del Sacremento, Uruguay. A very small but charming town, I spent the afternoon wandering around the UNESCO listed historic area where the remains of the Portugese and Spanish occupation can be found.

After leaving the cobblestone streets I walked along the beach front to view an old bull fighting ring and was treated to a gorgeous sunset on my return.
