Colonia del Sacramento in Uruguay can be easily reached by boat from Buenos Aires. As soon as you enter the small town, you seem to switch to another time. Old-timers are just as naturally used here to do day-to-day business as antiquated stoves are used to prepare meals, street lighting and much more.It almost seems as if there was a nationwide decision to let time stand still.
