When you enter Argentina you pay $160 to essentially buy a ten year visa. However this only means that for the next ten years you don't have to pay to enter the country. There is a still a 90 limit to the amount of time you can stay before you have to leave the country, even if for only an hour. As you can see today is day 86 and my 90 day limit was quickly approaching. In order to not be an illegal immigrant my family and cruised across the Rio Plata on an express ferry to Uruguay. An hour and a half later we docked in Colonia Uruguay. Colonia is a small city, closer to town after being in BA. It was nice though and we ate dinner at a nice parilla in heart of the historic district.
After dinner we stopped a nearby heladoria (noticed a common theme yet? Ice cream everyday it seems). There was a gaggle of young girls in front who waved me out to talk. Next thing I knew they all were gathering around for a picture. Of course my mom came running out of the ice cream shop to take a picture of her own and now I have it for pic of the day:
