Well, I did not think our Argentine dinner last night was that good but our guests loved it. I guess I know what a good Argentine restaurant show be. Hate it that the place I really like was closed. We had a great time with Goren and Erica and glad they could get away from passengers for a while and "let their hair down". We went through 3 bottles of vino to help that!
This morning I took Rebecca to the Recoleta. It is a very large and old cemetery near the city center. It has a high brick wall around it and is very beautiful with huge family monuments. It is a place like no other in the world. Evita is buried here but we could not find where. Around it is lots of restaurants where you can sit outside or inside and night clubs too. It was very hot so only lasted about an hour there. I brought Rebecca back to the ship and I returned to the city area for some more walking and people watching. BA is a good people watching place. Saw a homeless guy carrying a mattress and he plopped it down in the shade of a large monument in center of a square.
When I returned to ship, Rebecca had gotten her hair cut in the Canyon Ranch spa onboard and worked out. I was talking with a guy from suite down the way from us and he said the Tango Show we are suppose to go to tonight is not that good. We have both seen a tango show here so think we will cancel it. Was not until 10pm so kind of late for "us old folks".
476 new passengers coming aboard today so lost some friends and now will have to make more new ones. Two other new cruise ships in port with us today so lots of tourists helping the economy here. There is a super Panamax container ship in port today. I have never seen a ship that large. It's too big to go through Panama Canal now but can in 3 years when they open the new lanes.
