So we left it til last to check out the ‘sights’ of Buenos Aires - we’ve struggled a bit to really get into things here - there are some interesting and beautiful pockets, but on the whole, we’ve found it to be a big busy city with a bit of a lack of identity.
Maybe we found it today. Or maybe we’ve struggled with a combination of jet lag, the heat, the constant worry of Covid scuppering our plans combined with lots of lining up.
First stop today was a local coffee shop then a walk to Recoleta Cemetery. A wander around looking at some of the very ornate graves, possibly a missed opportunity with our lack of knowledge of Argentinian history. But we soaked up the peace and pondered the creepiness of a nighttime tour!
Next stop was La Boca where we grabbed some lunch and enjoyed the kerb-side tango show and drumming demonstration on one side and singing and music on another. A wander around Caminito with all its atmospheric colourful buildings before the pool called us back to the apartment.
Grocery stop for dinner, a quick swim and a family movie night to see
out the year. Fingers crossed for a successful start to 2023!
