We had a wonderful day. Both of us were exhausted last night and slept like logs. When we finally woke up this morning we were rested and ready to go. We went to El Petit Colón near our hotel for breakfast. It is a famous cafe, named El Petit Colón because it is very close to the Buenos Aires Opera house, El Teatro Colón.
We ordered the egg breakfast for two and, oh my what a feast! It was fabulous and we didn’t need to eat again until dinner.
Today was a primarily a rest day, but we got a lot done. We changed more money and bought tickets for a tango show tomorrow night. We straightened out our tickets for 4 shows we want to go to when we return to Buenos Aires in 6 weeks. Duke tried to buy the tickets before we left home but because of credit card challenges we weren’t sure if we had bought the tickets or not. Now we have all 4 sets of tickets.
For dinner we took a taxi to the Palermo district and had fabulous Argentine beef at a top rated restaurant, Calder del Soho. Then we walked to a nearby bookstore/ restaurant that also has a small Jazz Venue. The place is called Borges 1975. We saw 5 bass players perform. They were so much fun to listen too and the music was great. They seemed to be having so much fun. There were probably less than 20 people in attendance and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We came out smiling and took an Uber back to our hotel.
