Wing Commander spent 3 nights in Colonia in order to facilitate our day trip to the Museum. Worth the effort especially with a brilliant dinner and tour after at the Narbona Wine Lodge ... best appetizer on this planet. Lots of advice for the self drive tourist: - Q-Trip: Bad directions all round as 21 takes you through all the towns then looses you. Bypass seems to be the way ... missed that suggestion. But we toured downtown Dolores and Mercedes. Uruguayans are so hospitable. The roads are good. There was not one single sign directing us to the Museum site nor the entrance. We played the fools by entering the technological school. - Q-Trip: English tour at 10 and 3 ... seemed to early or too late. Therefore pick up rental night before and start by 7. I would double check with Museum all details. Nicolas saved us from a dud ending by showing us around. - Q-Trip: Our car rental was cheaper than the gas. Private guide may help but not give you the flexibility.

Nice walk on the ramble on a beautiful sunny early spring day. I really enjoy Fray Bentos and the ramble is one of its jewels.
