<\/a>The crypt next door to Evita’s in the Recoleta Cemetery in Buenos Aires, Argentina, is for sale.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
In case you\u2019re interested, there is space available next to the Duartes\u2019 mausoleum, which includes the brother, two of three sisters, mother, and body of former First Lady Eva Peron. I’ve provided contact information above.<\/p>\n
Walking between the granite walls reminded me of walking through a street in BsAs\u2014all doors, doors, doors with hardly any windows. Everything comes right up to the sidewalk\u2014no set-back entrances (except for our apartment building).<\/p>\n
We got to the Recoleta Cemetery after a joy ride in an old subway car on Linea A, a quick bite of ice cream, a long walk to the Floralis Gen\u00e9rica, some refreshments at Starbucks, and a quick view of the old cloisters. It was my first time as a real customer at Starbucks\u2014and I got a bottle of water. Mom got a sour Raspberry Smoothie, Ethan ordered a Chocolate Cr\u00e8me, and Dad selected a Mocha Frappuccino and a chocolate cookie. When our orders were served, Ethan\u2019s drink tasted coffee-y and Dad\u2019s tasted very sweet and chocolaty. Turns out they had botched the orders, which were written on the side of the cup. So Dad complained and the problem was solved. I liked the Chocolate Cr\u00e8me a lot.<\/p>\n
Floralis Gen\u00e9rica is a huge metal flower that opens at eight in the morning and closes at sunset. If strong winds blow, it also closes. The flower stays open on four nights of the year: the nights of May 25, September 21, December 24, and December 31. After we had seen seven cats in the cemetery, we started the long journey home.<\/p>\n
There are 40,000 taxis in the city of Buenos Aires. Sadly we didn\u2019t use one to get home: we walked for twenty minutes, got on Line D, switched to Line C, and then walked out from underground and home. Well, Dad and Ethan went home. Mom and I went to the supermercado<\/i> for milk, bread, and soup ingredients. When we came back I unlocked the door and heard a clanking sound. I thought I\u2019d dropped something. Turns out it was the other pair of keys, which were stuck in the door. Dad and Ethan were nowhere to be found.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
We found them. Ethan\u2019s hair is shorter.<\/p>\n
Also, before we left this morning I watched the new “Kiss You” music video! (Which is by One Direction, naturally.)<\/p>\n
