Buenos Aires
Took a tour around the city, BA is certainly a beautiful place with avenue upon avenue of lovely buildings. In Plaza de Mayo were many of the government buildings and cathedral. We were just in time to see the changing of the guard at the cathedral.
The Cathedral
Government House, Madonna sang “Don’t Cry for me Argentina” from the balcony
This is a memorial to all those who lost loved ones to Covid
We then drove to La Boca district, famous for its football team Boca Juniors. The area is very colourful and Maradona seems to be more famous than Eva Peron.
More impressive buildings
Our final stop was to Recoleta Cemetery full of impressive tombs, including the final resting place of Eva Peron
Then back to the hotel where we had a drink and cake to celebrate the birthday of one of the group.
Tonight we went to a dinner and tango show. It was wonderful, the dancers, costumes and music were all spectacular.
