Fussball und Friedhof....!!
yes, I know - very strange title for this post.... but wait - U'll understand... ;)die Fussball-WM ist nun also schon eine Woche alt.... und Deutschland hat schon 2 mal gewonnen.... und Argentinien auch.... and what a WIN yesterday...!!
We watched the game on the TV in our office here again as it was being played at 10.00am our local time here.... and the guy that I work with - Pablo y Pato - were going crazy...!! hugging and kissing the TV every Argentina scored..... and they had plenty opportunities to do that with the 6 - o win...!!
A lot of people here keep asking me what I'm doing in Argentina while the World-Cup is happening in my home country....?? hhmmm- bueno... maybe they're right in a way.... and YES - it would be pretty cool to be in Germany right now and experience everything live over there.... pero asi es ahora - and I'm here and having a nice time watching the games here too.... ;)
And why I mentioned FRIEDHOF (cemetory /cementerio) in the heading above...??
well, after almost 2 months here in Buenos Aires I went last SUN for the first time to el Cementerio de Recoleta.... the cemetory where you can also find the tomb of EVITA...!! (http://www.buenosairesteinvita.com.ar/cementerio_recoleta.htm)
not sure, why I never went inside there before to have a look, even though I had passed sooooo many times already.... but definitely - a place I recommend to visit when you come to Buenos Aires..... it's really, really beautiful.... and easily the nicest cemetory I've been to in all those places around the world that I've traveled to so far....
sure, it's a cemetory - so it does have this "un poquito triste" sentiment coming with it naturally, pero este Cementerio de Recoleta seems more like its own little town with lots of small temples, churches, houses.... little streets, caminos and alley ways... ahhh I should just go back some time to take pics so that you can see for yourself.... :)
and for sure, I will go there again during my time in Buenos Aires...!! :)
Have a nice weekend....xxx
