Between Brazil and Argentina, this small country on the east coast of South America is often ignored by North American tourists, but not by Valerie. Here she rides with the gauchos of the Pampas herding cows like a pro. She tours the Uruguayan Riviera and has an unexpected lunch with sea lions on the beach in Punta del Este. Valerie strolls the neo-colonial capital city of Montevideo where architecture of colonial Spanish, classic Italian, and Art Deco mix freely. And directly across the from the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires is the only World Heritage site in Uruguay, the City of Colonia del Sacramento, the five hundred year old former Portuguese colonial city which maintains an old world charm that Valerie brings outs in ways that only Valerie can.
