Buenos Aires Update

We've been non-stop on-the-go since day one. Wednesday we strolled several neighborhoods, saw the obelisk, the insanely-wide main boulevard (world's widest), and generally got the lay of the land

Thursday we saw Plaza Mayo, site of the presidential palace (Casa Rosa), the cathedral, a couple of minor museums, saw the square in front of, and the façade of, Congresso (the legislative building), toured Teatre Colón, and had a fabulous dinner.

Yesterday we toured the inside of the Congresso, and did a lengthy stroll, from Pl. Italia to the Monument to the Spanish, the German Monument, through the Pl Mitre, and to the Ricoletta Cementery. What a full day, and lots of walking.

Lots of beautiful photos and great experiences to share.

Today is Saturday, and we are about to begin our exploring anew! More to come...
