CFK takes first trip since surgery, heads to Chapadmalal

President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner took her first trip following her surgery earlier this month, and decided to spend the weekend with her children Máximo and Florencia at their residence in Chapadmalal, located some 30 kilometres south of Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires province.

The Head of State left just after midday from the militar sector of Jorge Newbery Metropolitan airport, aboard the Tango 01, travelling to Mar del Plata where she would then be escorted to the Chapadmalal residence.

The visit marks the first trip taken by the President since she underwent thyroid surgery on January 4. Also, it’s the first time Fernández de Kirchner has been to the seaside town to stay at the presidential residence since becoming Head of State. The last visit was with the later Néstor Kirchner in January 2004, when she was still a national senator in Santa Cruz.
