Montevideo, Uruguay

Took a public bus this morning to Plaza De Toros (a bull fighting ring)

Bumped into William who I met at the Hostel Florida. Then took the 1pm bus from Colonia to Montevideo. It’s 2.5 hours ride and cost (185 Uruguayan pesos, around $8.5)

Took a bus to to El Viajero-Ciudad Vieja Hostel which is the same one I stayed in Colonia. Since there’re only a few hours before the sky gets dark (sky gets dark at 6pm since it’s still winter), spent some time walking around the city with 2 Americans (Emily and Jamila) I just met at the hostel.

Statue of Artigas At Plaza Independenzia (Artigas is a national hero of Uruguay, sometimes called “the father of Uruguayan independence)
