Old People

My dad was born just two years after the last sighting of Carlos Gardel. I guess that makes him old! I say sighting because no one wants to believe the great tango singer is dead. And someone is going to prove it tonight by defending their thesis at the "At the Foot of the Wall" museum. The Argentine people would declare him French, but the myths will be dismantled tonight by none other than the Argentine researcher Martina Iniguez.
Tonight also coincides with the day of St. John, becoming ever more popular here in Montevideo. Among other places, the feast is celebrated in Chiloe, where I was almost three years ago. If you're in Montevideo, take the opportunity to see a bonfire at Br. Artigas and Br. Espana.
Thank you to the two tourists this morning who weathered the flurry of my commentary for 2 hours.
