Buenos Aires is only slighly further South

[DTCwordfan]

bit like which is furthest west - Liverpool or Edinburgh or even Kendal - St Andrews

[tiggerblue10]

Montevideo is further south but very slightly.

tiggerblue is correct.....one naturally thinks BA is......there's a lot like that in geography. like put London, Brussels, Paris, Montreal, Houston, Casablanca, NY, W-DC, Lisbon & Madrid in descending order of latitude.

[redman41]

Montevideo = 34 51 29 South
Buenos Aires = 34 35 15 South

I stand corrected as Monte is slighly furthest South
