Summer in the United States means it is Winter in the Southern Hemisphere. Two summers ago, I was traveling in South America. We were in Argentina for most of the time, but we had a few days to take a short trip to Uruguay, just a ferry ride away from Buenos Aires. We stayed in the quaint town of Colonia del Sacramento, but we were able to take a EARLY morning bus for a day trip to Montevideo. Boy was it COLD there! We went to a famous theater and outside were these ladies – they just make me think that it was sunny out, even though it was freezing. They definitely put a smile on my face! 🙂

A gray day can always brighten up with a splash of color!
