tour of colonia




monday morning we took a tour of colonia. it was really refreshing to finally do something touristy on this trip, becasue so much of our effort is put into NOT looking like toursits, and shunning all things that tourists would do and trying to be as porteno as possbile.






when we're in BA, for example, as a safety precaution, you just never take a map out in public. but in colonia, we were asked to walk around with maps.






colonia was absolutly beautiful it was like a glorified version of anyone of those cape cod, or small new england towns, i took probably 80 pictures because everything was so pretty. it was right on the water, there were coble stone streets. even a lighthouse. mom would have died. i wish there was a way that i could upload more pictures to this but ill just do a few highlights.
