A day in Uruguay


Today, Kara and I woke up really early and boarded a boat for Uruguay. It was freezing cold this morning when we left, despite my four layers of clothing! When we got to Colonia, we found maps and started walking.


Colonia is a UNESCO heritage site, showcasing many buildings dating back from the 1600's! We took it easy all day, wandered the streets and stopped in for a Cappuccino Italiana and some sweets.


After coffee, we walked and walked and walked. Thankfully, it warmed up and we weren't blocks of ice anymore.


Finally, before boarding the boat back to Buenos Aires, we stopped at a local parilla to eat a chivito, an Uruguayan steak sandwich with ham, cheese, lettuce, tomato and a fried egg. It was so good!
