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

I also fit in a private tango lesson!
We woke up to thunder & lighting and pouring rain, but the afternoon turned gorgeous! We had a lovely sunset and a relaxing day. Played some games, sang some tunes with the staff and chilled! Also got a chance to do some blog work. More daily highlights below.
Raja Ampat is truly a diver and snorkeler paradise! Soooo many fish and corals everywhere you look!
Seeing an Octopus on this trip is one of my goals. So far, I have seen two reef octopus hiding in holes on the reef slopes. But I really want to see one in motion, like this video below by Evan Johnston (follow him on Instagram at of___earth ). Evan is an Irish marine biologist, free diver/ scubadiver, instructor and talented underwater videographer. He has been at the Resort for the last 6 weeks taking video, for their future marketing and gave me this video for inspiration!
