Strictly here we come . . .

Highs of the day!
It was RM's birthdaywhich we celebrated with our first bottle of duty free champagne!
Enjoyed Plaza de Mayo but see low ...
HJs PIN and card worked in HSBC and she was able to withdraw RMs weekly pension
We had a very nice lunch in Cafe Tortini (recommended by a certain Spanish speaking Welshman!) and this set us up for the evening's entertainment of a tango show in their salon where we had the next low . . . . 
Empanadas and papas fritas on the way home rounded off a lovely day

Lows of the day!
RM received his first birthday text at 3am! (but it was a very kind thought!)
 . . .  Casa Rosada was closed despite what it said in all the books and Cabildo (a very small museo) had Mr and Mrs Jobsworth on duty
 . . . . where a woman on our table tried to cause a fuss and get us moved because we had a better seat than she did
If I eat many more empanadas, I am going to start looking a pasty!

Hope you like the photograph of us taken after the show!  I am not sure it is quite the right position, but I am sure we will improve on it in tomorrow's photograph.

  1. A very happy birthday Mr C. Looks as though it was fun, despite the lows.
    I'm enjoying every moment of your travels - keep blogging.
