Buenos Aires; River Plate walk

From Retiro, I walk to the River Plate, or as close as I can get to it, and follow the path. There are some great views, and an upmarket restaurant area along the sourh side; Puerto Madero is on the other side. I see a museum ship, The Uruguay, and the reach Puente de la Mujer and the Sarmiento Frigate (both seen from afar yesterday, from further up the river). I soon reach the area where the Casa Rosada is located and head back to the hostel.

Combined with Avenida Florida, it has been a lovely circular walk (in the heat, unfortunately).

Later on, we go out for beers at our favourite bar and a meal at a restaurant we have been to before - creatures of habit......

It has been a fantastic trip to South America.Read more
