BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA - Day 3

On our final day in Buenos Aires I wanted to go back to Recoleta area and due the Cemiterio tour. It turns out it was Lori's birthday and she wanted to do the same thing and had arranged to me a guide at 11 am, Scott also joined in and we had a great time! The tour was a combination architectural keeping up with the Jones and the added bonus of a fun ghost tour with great stories on some of the resident spirits!

After the tour we went to see the Lotus in Parque Thays. It was a gift to the city. The petals open and close at night.

On our last full day in Uepi, all six of us went for a snorkel at nearby reef called Dekudekuru . The reef has many protected, shallow & deep water pools, made within coral crevices, where the shifting earth or plate tectonics below, have risen over years. It was fun exploring all the nooks and crannies and seeing the way the sun shone through - it was a gorgeous day! These photo's from Kelly's show scene, since none of us have an underwater camera, yet!

Other activities we did in UEPI included hiking in rainforest, kayaking, snorkeling and diving. Our scuba lessons were spectacular this time!! Jill and Grant Kelly, the 75 year old founder's of Uepi were our personal teachers. Grant did the classroom review with us and fitted us with our gear. Jill taught us all the water skills and was with me the whole time! These lessons were exactly what I hoped for! Super informative, calm and totally hands on - I never felt unsafe or overwhelmed and really enjoyed the whole experience.
