A Day in Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay in Photos

by Kimberly on October 16, 2008

The weather wasn’t great, but we only had two more days in Buenos Aires and we wanted to see Uruguay before we left. So we hopped on a Buquebus ferry near Puerto Madero in BA for the one hour journey to Colonia, a small town on the Rio de la Plata in Uruguay.

There’s not a lot to do in Colonia but enjoy the view and wander the cobbled streets, so that’s just what we did. It’s a nice day trip from Buenos Aires and I imagine it’s amazing on a sunny day. It was a bit chilly, but the rain held out until an hour before we left so we managed to snap a few photos. Here are some of our favorites.
