Something in the air
Digesting the historical legacy
Idyllic setting
Uruguay ferry
Farewell Buenos Aires
Slow boat to Colonia
Colonia Harbour on the Rio de la Plata
A stroll through history
A superb example from the Portuguese period
A profusion of bougainvilleas
Original Portuguese cobbled streets with central drainage
Early Portuguese house with stone walls, tiled roofs, low windows and doors
Another superlative example
Stop lagging behind!
Basilica of the Holy Sacrament
In the Basilica's alcove
These restaurants take their age very seriously!
Roxy's great-grandmother
Garden song
A verdant slice of history
Time waiteth for no woman
City gate and walls built in 1722
Ruins of St. Francis Convent (1694)
A living museum
Stylish restoration
Retaining original walls and ambience
When day is done
Morning rhapsody
