Mel and Janet's Excellent Adventure

This blog is a way for Janet and Mel to communicate with friends and family during their incredible journeys following retirement. Of course, some adventures are less than incredible. You might not find those here. Their most recent adventure took them to Okinawa, Japan to see their now 4-year old twin grandchildren, Milana Michelle and Tavis Michael. Feel free to add your comments, questions, or just news. Private communications can be sent to m-muchnik@sbcglobal.net.

Vibrant Democracy Includes Demonstrations

Not until the 1983 did Argentina overthrow the military dictatorship and it's "dirty war" that left more than 30,000 missing, when torture and murder and unspeakable acts were too common. Today's Argentina is a vibrant democracy and peaceful street demonstrations are common as they are in other democracies. The pink house beyond the sign Janet is looking at, " the Casa Rosetta" Is the Presidential Palace now. It's color is said a to be the mix of two political parties - the red and whatever produces pink.
