Colonia, Uruguay

Today was our final day in Uruguay and it was a really fun five days. We spent our final day in Colonia Del Sacramento, which is a Port town and an old fort that was used to fend off the Spanish when the Portuguese originally “founded” it in 1680. It’s a really pretty town with a nice fort, a lighthouse and really quaint touristy streets.

We rented a golf cart, yes you read that correctly, and had Tori and Jakob drive us around the Uruguayan streets to a beach and saw an old Colosseum that was built for bullfighting. It was a fun day and we will start exploring Buenos Aires tomorrow.Read more
