Six Days in Uruguay
Some people believe that Uruguay is the most boring part of South America. Nothing is further from the truth. Once we arrived in Colonia and Montevideo we realized Uruguay was a fully developed country. As our bus approached the city centre, we were amazed to see many people walking along the streets.

We had the taxi take us to the Plaza Independencia in the center of town, where we ...
