Day 2

First full day we covered a wide area on foot including :-

  • Plaza de Mayo
  • Casa Rosada (where the government hangs out)
  • Cathedral Metropolitana (lucky to see changing of the guard)
  • La Recoleta Cemetery (final resting place of Evita among others)
  • El Ateneo Grand Splendid (amazing bookshop in old theatre with cafe on the stage)

What we learned today:-

  • Books are really expensive in Argentina
  • Wine isn’t! The £7 bottle of Malbec in the restaurant was amazing!
  • Don’t go looking for food in a restaurant at 7.30 pm if you don’t want to be sitting on your own!
