The beginning of our trip was spent in Buenos Aires. There were many beautiful churches. We found out that 95% of the population is Roman Catholic and by law, the president and vice-president of Argentina must be Roman Catholic.
Beautiful parks are in Buenos Aires. There are so many apartment buildings that everyone relishes their green space. Everyone speaks Spanish, but they don't look Spanish or Mexican, more European. The architecture has a definite European look to it, as well. It was beautiful.
This is the area of the city where they held a flea market. There was so many unique and ancient things for sale from people's old homes. Wayne bought an old lock with a skeleton-like key. It was such an interesting experience. We found a place to eat at the corner of the intersection. Just outside the restaurant, we saw a couple dancing the tango on a large plywood-like board. I had a croissant with ham and cheese and Wayne had a cured ham and cheese sandwich. We are still not sure what cured meant, but he said it was kind of rubbery. I wonder if it was cooked? My Diet Pepsi tasted awesome that day, but no ice. :(
Well, that's all there is to post. We loved Buenos Aires, but so glad to be home.
