Cementario

I thought that it was only Goths who got excited about cementaries, but I think the one in Buenos Aires is a must see. After traveling through some poor countries it´s crazy to see coffins housed in such a gratuitusly ostentatious way. I was used to seeing people living in mud huts and now this. Who were these people and where does their wealth come from. Some of these tombs are as big as houses others are just marble boxes.

Also there are cats here lots of cats the workmen here seem to be feeding them so I guess that´s why they stick around. That adds to the strangeness of this place.
