Colonia, Uruguay 1.8.2015

Hi again! I'm back to blogging, and the first thing that deserves a post is our day trip to Colonia, Uruguay. We went with my friends Filippa and Axel, and four of their roommates, so we were seven in total. The point of the trip was, as most people in Bs As will know, not only tourism, and so of course we ended up very familiar with the ATMs in Colonia (dollars, I had missed you <3). But the tourism part wasn't so bad either!

Sunrise in the port of Buenos Aires. We left at 9:45am, and took the slower (but cheaper) boat (3h instead of 1h).
The Uruguayan flag with the Bs As skyline in the background.
Happy tourists in Colonia!
Me and Filippa with a cool lamp post.
We went up to the lighthouse that turned out to have a led light from Finland (Suomi mainittu!!).
Not a bad view from the lighthouse. The boat terminal where we arrived is on the left.
One of the main squares with a small handicrafts market. It really feels like autumn here with these colors.
Found some delicious ice cream.
Sunset with the lighthouse.
Eating ice cream. Had a great day with these guys!
We took the ferry home at 19:30, and spent the whole trip playing an extremely fun but complicated (since we added new rules for every round) card game. I feel bad for the people who tried to sleep nearby, the game got pretty intense at times.

That was it, the trip was a lot of fun and I'll visit Colonia again for sure! And not just for the ATMs...
