BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA - Day 3
On our final day in Buenos Aires I wanted to go back to Recoleta area and due the Cemiterio tour. It turns out it was Lori's birthday and she wanted to do the same thing and had arranged to me a guide at 11 am, Scott also joined in and we had a great time! The tour was a combination architectural keeping up with the Jones and the added bonus of a fun ghost tour with great stories on some of the resident spirits!

After the tour we went to see the Lotus in Parque Thays. It was a gift to the city. The petals open and close at night.
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!
