I visited Villa Ocampo, former private mansion of the Ocampos, an aristocrat family in Argentina converted into a cultural center in the name of Victoria Ocampo, a socialite and promoter of the arts etc. I was treated to lunch by our family friend!

| The guitars hanging from the trees are part of the current exhibit inspired by Maria Elena Walsh (singer-songwriter-poet for children), incorporated into the mansion. |

| Inside the mansion - another part of the exhibit |

| My dessert overlooking the garden. The mobile-like hanging pieces are another art installation part of the exhibit, inspired by a poem of Walsh's about the famous Jacaranda trees - a famous component of the spring Buenos Aires landscape. |
