BA to Uruguay to BA

Toward the end of October 2008, I made my way to Uruguay for a few days. I took the Buquebus Ferry over to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay. I went with several girls from my hostel in BA. It was so cold and rainy. My 2 peruvian friends went back to BA and Dana (from Israel) and I went on to Montevideo. Dana and I took the bus from Colonial to Montevideo. Uruguay seemed pretty similar to Argentina in it's scenery and the accents were also very similar. I spent a couple nights in Montevideo. Dana and I stayed with her friend from Uruguay which made it fun to get to know the place with a local. During the day we took a little tour of Montevideo with a tour company since we had so little time to explore there on our own. I had to make it back to BA as Sue was flying in to spend a couple of weeks with me traveling. I ended up going back on the Buquebus in the class above first class, wooooo, fancy!!! Actually I upgraded so I could leave from Montevideo instead (I think). I need to reference my calendar on that one. I made it back to BA to meet up with Sue. Sue and I spent a few days in BA so that she could see some of the cool spots there. We made our way to the bus terminal (always a fun experience) and bought our tickets for the looooong bus ride to Iguazu Falls! More to comeee.........
