Montevideo is the largest city, the capital, and the chief port of Uruguay. As I remember correctly we only spent one night here. Again we stayed at Hostelling International. This hostel is centrally situated and our room overlooked Plaza Independencia and theSolís Theatre, which is is Uruguay's oldest theatre.
From Buenos Aires, a two hour long Ferry ride across the Rio de la Plata which is the main water thoroughfare for visitors from Argentina to access any part of Uruguay, you will reach Colonia. Knowing nothing about this town, we arrived with no expectations. Then we were blown away. A quiet little town with cobblestoned streets and Portuguese styled built houses with bougainvilleas resting on the doorways.
After almost missing our flight in the early morning of 25th of December 2007, (because of a party at Hostel Inn in Buenos Aires and our own miss guided time of our flight) we safely, but very tired, arrived at the El Calafate International Airport. (The airport is located some 20 km east of the village and has daily flights to and from Buenos Aires.) We shared a taxi from the airport to the town of El Calafate with a Chilean couple.
