Buenos Aires – December 2019 – Graduation Day

One of the interesting items of being in South America is the reverse of the seasons – making December graduation time!

Nothing better than a beautiful sunny start to Graduation Day.




The cruise ship is arriving from Brazil.




In the middle of the city some young ladies are celebrating their high school graduation in true Buenos Aires fashion – blowing whistles and going into the middle of the street during the light changes!







Meanwhile later that afternoon in Olivos the Naval Training Facility is having their graduation as well – in a much more reserved manner.




The band plays the national anthem.




The flags are ready.







The cadets are ready.




Seemingly bored waiting on the dignitaries…




They receive their diplomas and congratulations…




Finally it is done and the new graduates can pose with the Secretary of Security.




Evening is approaching so the boats return to the harbor.








With another great sunset it is time for….




Fireworks!!!!
