Wednesday we all slept in after our Uruguay excursion and got started a little late. First we visited the Spanish school where Heather works. Check it out here: http://www.iberospanish.com/
Note the lady in the pink visor:
After visiting her crypt, and of course getting our regular afternoon ice cream, we headed over to Palermo to tour the Evita Museum. We learned all about the short life of the most famous first lady of Argentina.
Then we went to Puerto Madero to have lunch with some friends. We ate sandwiches and salads with Mauro from Argentina, Layla from France/Morocco, and Bruno from Switzerland.
Afterwards Juan Domingo our taxi driver took us to the Recoleta neighborhood. First we explored the Pilar Cathedral. The church dates back to at least the 1700s. We were also able to tour the museum of artifacts that is in the attached cloisters.
Note the lady in the pink visor:Then we walked through the next door Recoleta Cemetary. The cemetary is especially famous because it is where Evita Peron was buried.
