Glad it all turned out well in the end !

I'm told that the Cementario de la Recoleta is a truly beautiful place to spend a few hours. My friends who have visited, wanted to pay homage to Carlos Gardel who is famous in the world of Argentine Tango and is a hero to the people, los descamisados, in the same way that Eva Peron was. Interestingly, her body found it's place at the cemetery only in 1976, when it was recovered from Milan. It was buried by the military governors under multiple layers of plate steel, presumably to stop grave robbers.

BTW, lovely photos.

Thanks!

I did not know about Peron...

Yes, the cemetery is truly special...if you have a chance to go you really should!

I didn’t know you’d left Mt Vernon. I have been wanting to go to Argentina for many years. We hope to make it happen within 3 years. Perhaps we can visit your farm.
