We took a two hour bus ride from Montevideo, the capital, to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay. This town is the opposite of Montevideo. It is a small colonial town across the bay from Buenos Aires, Argentina. In fact it is a common location for those staying and/or working in Argentina to visit as a method of renewing their 90 day tourist limit. Many will take a ferry across to Uruguay for lunch then head back to Buenos Aires for another 3 months.
It reminded me of a small New England town with different shades of leaves. Alot of antique cars, bicycles and mini-motorcycles. It is another colonial town, but with a mix of Spanish and Portuguese influence.
