Salto, Uruguay

After a 5 and a half hour bus ride from Punta del Diablo to Montevideo I spent the afternoon in Montevideo to go back to some shops to pick up a few things I didn´t get the first time I was there.







I then took the last bus from Montevideo to Salto which is on the western side of Uruguay. Again my bus ride was almost 6 hours, but in the space of 1 day I had gone from one side of the country to the other. I thought that was pretty amazing, considering I didn´t fly.







Salto is a pretty little town on the Rio (river) Uruguay. There isn´t very much here for tourists to see so I didn´t take lot´s of pictures.






My first day here was spent wandering the streets, as I do.







Then before leaving on my last day I spent the whole day at the thermal springs. They have different swimming pools around a lovely garden and each one is warm and at different temperatures. The were very relaxing but one of the smaller ones I went to get in was so hot that it was like putting your feet into a boiling pot of water. I eventually managed to get in it all the way but it took some adjusting to get used to it.




So after a very relaxing day it was off to the bus once again and my trip to Posadas, Argentina.
