Buenos Aries, Argentina

Buenos Aires Highlights

Before leaving South America, get acquainted with Buenos Aires during this tour highlighting the city's major neighborhoods and attractions. We visited the Recoleta Cemetery, an amazing aboveground cemetery lined with Mausoleums and statues (1 - 8). Then, we made a return trip to La Boca, and its famous for its multicolor tin houses. After lunch, I strolled down toward Opera Bay, which was built to resemble the Sydney Opera House and saw the Puente de la Mujer bridge from a distance.  Later, we saw Plaza de Mayo surrounded by the Casa Rosada, the Cabildo (Colonial Town Hall) and the Cathedral (1 - 7).

Then we spent, oh, 6 hours in the airport.  Luckily, we had Barry there with his laptop to entertain us with the slide shows for South America, Australia and the British Isles
