WHERE
Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina and one of South America’s most vibrant cities.
WHEN
I visited for three days in December 2016, breaking the journey from Australia to Ushuaia to interrupt the long trip either side of my voyage to Antarctica.
WHAT
It is my second call on Buenos Aires but, because I’m with a group of first-time visitors, I join in to explore the touristy corners of the Argentinian capital and spend time surveying La Boca, Recoleta, the city’s cathedral, the waterfront and a few other sites around the settlement.
The highlight, afternoon tea at La Biela which is a traditional Argentinian cafe a stone’s throw from Recoleta’s notorious cemetery, with the handsome eatery famous for its breakfast menu and a long list of very fancy caffeinated beverages.
