Iguacu Falls (Brazil)

Just waiting to catch a bus back to Foz. The Brazillian side of the falls is far better I think. Such amazing panoramic view, and you can get right up close to the Devils Throat, still cant believe it. You can stare at the falls for hours and hours.

Our hotel in Argentina was brilliant. The Riotropic. If you're coming to see Iguazu in Argentina, I recommend it highly. There are only 10 small cabins in the complex and a swimming pool. The owner, Reme, is a French man who travelled to Argentina and ended up staying. He built the place over the last couple of years. Its the most welcome we have been since we arrived. Last night, on our way into town, he drove by us and offered us a lift. He brought us out of his way to a gorgeous little restaurant - which cost 25 euro for both us - full courses and everything, love the peso!

This morning, Reme called us a taxi to take us the Argentinian border, then onto the Brazillian border and onto the Falls. The taxi man was so nice. He looked after all the admin for us with our passports. When we got to the Falls, he ran out of the car into the builing to make sure we could store our rucksacks for the day. He then brought us in, and got the locker keys for us. I cannot believe how nice he was - but soon realised when we got back to Brazil and found grumpy faces on all the staff. Really wish we could spend more time in Argentina.

So its off now to the bus station in Foz to head up north to Asuncion in Paraguay. We'll catch a flight there tomorrow which will take us into Bolivia. The Salt Flats are getting closer! Can't wait!

Tom and Tadhg arrived safely last night so they should be enjoying their first day in Rio today. Check out Tadhg's blog for their updates. That's all for now!
