Life is slow here in Colonia, especially after spending a week in the bustling city of Buenos Aires. Keith & I are moving super slowly due to the high temperature and elevated UV levels! Luckily we have a comfortable, air-conditioned room to return to when I am feeling like I'm sweating to death. These days here are meant for relaxing and it's a great spot to do just that! The high today is expected to be 97 degrees with high humidity so I'm not exaggerating too much to say it's really hot!
It is, however, a very lovely place built on a small penisula back in the 1700s as a port for the Portuguese to smuggle in goods for distribution in Buenos Aires. The architecture has been conserved and restored, flowers are in bloom and there are many benches in the shade of trees to stop and enjoy the beauty of the town and river views.
Enjoy some pictures while we take an afternoon siesta!
