Buenos Aires

Our guide Jose was great. He doesn't seem to like the current President or Mayor in Argentina ... But they just got voted in for their second terms ... So he will have to wait for change.

We went to Racoleta and visited the cemetery there. An area of about 6 square blocks filled with burial tombs. Each tomb has two spaces and can be leased for 90 years at a time. Any family that stops paying will have the tomb cremated and the lot will open up for the next person on the waiting list (yes there is a waiting list for a tomb plot)
