BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA - Day 2

We were back exploring the City again today. It is a beautiful place, with nice wide streets which gives lots of green space. It reminds me of Philadelphia with lots of public art and distinct neighborhoods. First stop was an old theater that has been converted to a bookstore El Ateneo Grand Splendid. Next was the Obelisco and BA sign. Then we climbed up the rooftop lookout
Next was the Neighborhood of LaBoca another fun colorful artsy area and the home of Casa Amarilla Boca Juniors CABJ (soccer).
I also fit in a private tango lesson!

Somedays are just meant to be beach days, to chill with a friend! First, I did an uber run to nearby Costco in the town of Lihue, where I bought us Tommy Bahama backpack beach chairs! Then we were good to go. Kalapaki beach was just a quick 15 minute walk from the Ship. I realized I did the same thing with my Cousin Cathy , back in 2020, when I was here on my first cruise to Hawaii! Today, I spent the afternoon chilling with good buddy Sherrie Cornett.
