Oh what a lovely tree lined streetOh what a lovely tree lined streetOh what a lovely tree lined street

Dont you love the pruning!!!!
After a short (finally) two hour bus ride, we made it to Colonia where we will make our ferry ride to Buenos Aires tonight. We went to, yes you guessed it, more markets and yes we made more purchases (maybe even some presents??). Ate a lovely Chorizo sausage sandwich??!!, walked around some more, and yes ate some more!!! We found a little cafe called the El Drugstore, you all must go there when you are here!!!!

Here is a little history lesson for you all!! Colonia was origianlly founded as a port so illegal goods could be smuggled in. The spanish wanted all goods to go through Lima which was obviously expensive. So Colonia was used to smuggled goods in, then to Buenos Aires. Wow are you all proud of us, we actually remembered to give you a little information.

Eventually we made out way to the ferry and our 1 hour ferry ride to Buenos Aires, Argentina, Yippeeeee!!!!!! Yes we were happy at the thought, but sad all the same - our little holiday in South America is coming close to the end! But hey party times to be had!!!!
