We lucked out and just happened to be in Buenos Aires for
Easter so a few of us went to the new pope, Francis’ old church, the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral. It was
beautiful and packed with tourists as it is now an even bigger part of history. There
was memorabilia for sale on the streets including magnets and shirts displaying
the happy new pope. One of the newspapers took our picture in front of the
church so we may be in it and many different news channels were filming inside.
The service was in Spanish, but easy to understand. Happy Easter!

Oppa Esera Style
We began rehearsing during the last cruise for a crew show organized by one of the singers, Esera. He is basically Beyonce in male form. His voice is angelic. While it was his show, he made sure to include everyone in some way whether it was in a movie, a dance number or a joke. We kicked off the show with “Let’s Have a Kiki” which turned into a flash mob. As I had mentioned in a previous post, we had a Kiki themed birthday party and no one knew what it meant. Hopefully they do now! Esera sang several songs including some of his own. My favorite part of the night (other than free wine and pizza) was dancing while he sang “Love On Top” by Beyonce. We learned the dance from the music vid and had a blast on stage. We closed the show with another flash mob to “Gangnam Style.” I think Esera needs to go on tour. He is a star and put on a truly unforgettable performance.

Sheep!
We went shopping in Ushuaia and stumbled upon adorable chocolate sheep in the window of a store called “Ovejitas de la Patagonia.” They are filled with dulce de leche and taste muy delicioso. The lady that works in the store is super sweet and let us sample a bunch of yummy things. Aren't they cute!?

Lunch in Montevideo
We went to lunch at the meat market in Montevideo. It's super close to the port and definitely my favorite place to eat in South America. The
steaks are massive and the wine is great. We love our medio y medio. So many of
our friends left the ship this week so it was nice to go out together one last
time.
