Buenos Aires is art
















Yesterday we ambled a good 16km through Buenos Aires, along Florida Road, through Jose de Sainte Martin Park where we watched some amazing dog whisperers at the doggie day care :), ate empanadas and drank fabulous coffee at Pizzaria la Torre del Retino. We visited the Museo National de Bellas Artes where we saw works by Monet, Manet, Renoir, Van Gogh, Rodin, Goya, Rembrandt van Rijn, Reubens, Rothko, Pollock, Picasso, Degas, Henry Moore, Wassily Kandinsky, de Vlamink, Henri Roussou, Cezanne, Gauguin, Miro, Chagall, Diego Rivera, Modigliani and paul klee...it was just amazing!!!!!!! We also visited the Recoletta Cemetery where all the rich and famous, including Evita are buried and wormed our way through the maze of sarcophigi and grave stones of Buenos Aires' necropolis.





Needless to say, once again we didn't make the amazing BA night life and we fell into bed at 11pm...the time when everyone else steps outside for supper and a vino tinto or cerverza.
