As we start our journey we follow a Falcon car, notorious for its spacious trunk that allegedly accommodates up to three bodies, a haunting relic of Buenos Aires' dark past. which serves as a chilling reminder of the country's complex political landscape and the shadowy secrets lurking beneath its surface. In contract our first stop is the Casa Mínima which stands as a testament to Buenos Aires' architectural heritage. Tucked away in the historic San Telmo neighborhood, this narrow, two-story house holds the title of the city's narrowest building. Despite its diminutive size, Casa Mínima exudes charm and character, offering a glimpse into Buenos Aires' colonial past here we learn about some great and famous women slaves. Then our sweet tooth calls and we visit, La Casa del Dulce de Leche which offers a delectable experience of Argentina's iconic desert. Located in the heart of San Telmo, this charming shop specialises in dulce de leche, a beloved Argentine treat made from caramelised milk. We take the opportunity to sample an array of these delicacies before buying a tub to take home. The cobblestone streets of San Telmo come alive with the vibrant energy of its famed street market. Here, visitors can browse through stalls overflowing with handicrafts, while street performers and tango dancers entertain the crowds. Immerse yourself in the bohemian atmosphere of San Telmo Street Market, where history and culture converge. A short distance away the undercover market offers a different experience with some great places to eat antiques and brickabrack stores to wander. All within the original steel and glass structure that the industrial migrants would have shopped in. Recoleta Cemetery offers a journey into Buenos Aires' aristocratic past and its fascination with death and memorialisation. We wander through labyrinthine pathways lined with ornate mausoleums and elaborate tombstones, each telling the story of Argentina's elite families and illustrious figures. We also discover the final resting place of Eva Perón, among other notable personalities, in this hauntingly beautiful cemetery. Finally we conclude our journey in Palermo SoHo, a trendy neighbourhood renowned for its hip boutiques, chic cafes, and vibrant street art. We wander through tree-lined streets in search of the elusive 'The Hole Bar', a hidden bar and restaurant which unfortunately for us remains hidden. From fashion boutiques to gourmet restaurants, Palermo SoHo offers a glimpse into Buenos Aires' contemporary culture and creative spirt. We made a bucket list of places we wanted to visit and Joanne's choice was Antarctica it is a continent that she has always wanted to see but no way was she ever going to go in a zodiac so when we found a scenic Antartica cruise we just had to go. So we booked a cruise with Celebrity Cruises adding on some hotel days at the start and end of the holiday to explore Buenos Aires. Neither of us have been to the places on this itinerary previously. This cruise now means that we have finally visited every continent. So on this adventure we explore on our own and we also take ship excursions to maximise our time and experience. We're never too old to keep exploring, so please join us.
