Interesting sights and sounds can still be found in unexplored corners of the city. This weekend we went on a search for tickets for the El Litoral train that will take us on Friday first to the middle of the campo, then to the swamps, then to the border - but most definitively out of Buenos Aires. After our big purchase, we finally visited Buenos Aires' other cemetery.
I am trying to enjoy even the most particular of
tramites that keeps us tied to the city: waiting for medicinal laundry detergent to combat malaria, buying bus tickets, exploring the new Bolivian visa laws, and allowing dear friends to cook us asado and share laughs. Some things, more than others, will be missed.

Usually, the Chacarita cemetary is not as famous as the one in Recoleta. I have to say that I liked the Chacarita one better. It is bigger, it has many sportsmen buried there and the neighbourhood is quieter. I had an apartment for rent in buenos aires actually very close to it. Not many people know about the existance of this cemetary and they go to the Recoleta Cemetary where Evita Peron is buried. For this reason, the Chacarita one is generally empty so if you go you can walk around without stepping on others!
