Where I stayed
Kaixo Hostel Central
Had a walk to the Recoleta area this morning. We stopped at Hard Rock Café on the way and picked up the usual shot glass.
Got a missed call on my phone so went to internet café to call recruitment company. Spent about an hour getting all my data updated so they can try and find me a job whilst I'm away.
We then arrived at Recoleta Cemetery to look round all the rich families tombs. A small town full of coffins, shrines & death - interesting. We spent about an hour looking round these huge tombs, including Evita's and the recently departed ex-president Raul Alonsin.
It was then back to the laundry to pick up our washing. Unfortunately, I had lost our ticket so we spent 20 minutes trying to describe our clothes in Spanish! We got them all back though.
We then got back to the hostel just in time for the Champions League again - obviously keeping Lorna happy! Actually, Lorna Skyped Amy whilst I watched the footy, and was still talking to her when the match finished!!
