BACK IN BA JUST FOR A DAY.

This is the final chapter in this month long saga,it will be short sweet and slightly different.
Some went off for more birding,we went for a walk around town to see some of the sights.
Our first objective was to find the tomb of Eva Peron in the famous cemetry.
Here are some of the highlights of our stroll around town.
