What better way to start a lively vacation than to head for the cemetary - Recoleta Cemetary, that is. Walking distance from our guest house (more about that later) and adjacent to a park, where we found a surprising number of people out and about on this beautiful (sunny and close to 80 degrees) Christmas day. We also found this amazing magnolia tree, which Hank is standing under.
The cemetary dates back to the 1820's and houses the remains of famous political and military leaders, as well as prominent Argentinians, in fabulous mausoleums like these above. The top one is where Evita Peron was laid to rest.
