Colonia, Uruguay Day 2
So why stay in 1 country if you can do 2? Been to BA before and interested in something different, so hopped on the fast boat to Colonia Uruguay. Accidentally caught the wrong bus and instead of the city tour we signed up for, we ended up on the country tour en route to a farm. OK. As my sister says “you cant make this stuff up” so we enter this farm museum, and see a sign talking about all these collections. The first room is filled entirely with keychains. huh? door closes behind us and the woman explains this guy who owns the farm owns the largest collection of keychains in the world, in fact he is the guiness book record holder. Not only that ‘ he hold the record for other collections unduplicated matchboxes, Lead pencils, ashtrays etc. We go on to tour the other rooms and sure enough, he has them all. I could not stop laughing and this english women kept telling me to hush or I would get us all started. We had a great lunch in Colonia while it poured cats and dogs and then we did a city walking tour. Very cute.
Jumped on the ferry back to BA and stopped off to see Puenta de las mujeres and a few other sites. For dinner we headed to Recoleta and true to BA style dined way too late
