In Iguazu Falls (Literally)

Monday, 10/28.  (This is out of order to report the Falls from Brazil and Argentina back-to-back.  Sunday’s report will follow.)

There is no way that I can adequately describe today’s wonder.  Photos will largely have to do.  (Videos might appear in the next week when home.) The morning began with an unforecast rain storm while we took a smallish train to the main falls.  The rain nicely stopped just as we arrived.  A mile walk to the edge. Walkway has undergone numerous rebuilds through the years due to flooding.  Amazing view.  Heavy mist at times rising up from far below.  Deafening noise.

A stroll along the numerous lessor falls followed.  Just incredible views.  Ran into host of entertaining animals.  A whole family of monkeys who moved so fast I failed to get a good picture. 

After lunch we climbed aboard a truck/bus for a long and rough ride to the river’s edge, where we went on a boat ride to the falls.  We got soaked.  One of the most fun experiences I’ve ever had.  Words can’t do it justice.  I used a GoPro and the video results were much better than I expected.  Everyone enjoyed watching themselves.

As predicted, the Argentina side of the falls is better than Brazil’s.
