Fresh off the boat and the car hire is a rip off, what to do?!
We decide to head off and explore, by foot of course!
Welcome to Colonia
There goes the ferry we came in on, on it's way back to Buenos Aires
No map made the exploration a challenge, fortunately the town is very small
The town is so sleepy the dogs are happy to chill out in the middle of the road
The gates to the old fort
Yeah I know it's hot, the jersey is to keep the mosquitoes away!
The famous lighthouse
Some old style Spanish cannons
... and on we march
Cobblestone streets throughout the town
Time for a breather by the water , we think this is where the mosquitoes breed!
The wide open tree lined avenues of Calonia - beautiful
Mosquito repelent - when in doubt ask the police!
Finally we have tracked down the Tabard, helleluja!!
V whacking on the Tabard, what a life saver!
View of the harbour
The girls enjoying the sights
V lapping up the sun as usual
More shots of the harbour
Georgie helping herself to another lashing of Tabard
Salon Parrillada, good place to stop for a drink in the heat
The flags outside our cafe
Patricia - great name and an excellent beer
Keep topping up those beers!
Ancient buildings, and some pretty old cars scattered around the town too
Time for lunch
The stunning view from the top floor balcony
V satisfied after a hearty lunch
More of the beautiful buildings in this town
A bit of random street art
Just enjoying our day
Leise and Lara hit the dancefloor - well the plaza in the town
Looking good, like a couple of pro's!
Good times!
Georgie playing the fool - well this was after a few drinks!
Cats and dogs all over this town, and not scared of strangers
Time to head for the ferry back to Buenos Aires
The Uruguay flag
Duty free - I think something got lost in translation....
