1. Life is good. :-) 2. I have resolved long ago that i will never sell my soul for any amount of money, and i'll never hang anyone out to dry to get ahead. 3. I was born intoxicated but my sins have since caught up with me. My doctor said I must now ABSTAIN from alcohol. What the hell does "abstain" mean anyways??? 4. I think formal education is overrated. The most meaningful things in life are learned by living. 5. If my cars were girls, I'd date them (if i have to explain this one to you, you wouldnt understand anyways). 6. "People who have no vices have very few virtues." - Abraham Lincoln (I say he was dead on with that.) 7. "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody." - Bill Cosby. 8. "Learning to ignore things is one of the great paths to inner peace." - Robert J. Sawyer 9. "For centuries, the battle of morality was fought between those who claimed that your life belongs to God and those who claimed that it belongs to your neighbors- between those who preached that "good" is self-sacrifice for the sake of ghosts in heaven, and those who preached that it is self-sacrifice for the sake of incompetents on earth. But I say that your life belongs to you and that the good is to live it." - Ayn Rand 10. I love my life! And i have my parents to thank for it. They can neither sing nor dance, but they surely rock!

This was such a great tour! You get the juicy historical tidbits of the prominent families whose members 'reside' in the cemetery. So if you're into history, I highly recommend this tour!

My Review

This tour should be done in an open bus because if you just drive by the locations and you couldnt get a good look if you're in a closed bus.

There were stops that were quite interesting though, like the one in La Boca.

It's a good alternative if you'd like to visit places outside of Buenos Aires. I liked the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception as well as the Museum of Natural Sciences.

I absolutely loved this tour! It has a lot to do with our tour guide, Martin. Aside from the historical tidbits that he shares, we touched on the cultural differences between western customs and that of Argentina. This was my favorite tour (I took 4 tours in all).

The bonus ticket was definitely worth it. Make sure you check out the Taronga Zoo. And get off at Watson's Bay and check out the view of the ocean from the peak, just a short walk.
