Iguazu Falls

Spectacular day . Collected early by Fernando and our driver Anderson and taken into Brazil . We then did the walkway all the way down to that side of the falls looking towards Argentina. We got very damp at the bottom but that was very welcome as 35 degrees and high humidity . Drank 3 litres during the day . I have taken so many photos could have a falls overdose ! I don’t think they do it justice .
We then drove back to Argentina ( the guys have special dispensation to take tourists back and forwards ) to see the falls looking across towards Brazil . Basically the falls are a big arc , made up of 22 different falls but all the same river . So glad we saw them from both sides as it gives you the full perspective. The Brazilian side is packed with people but the Argentinian side less so .
We saw lots of wildlife during the day too , a family of coatis ( a bit like a raccoon) capuchin monkeys , exceeding large catfish and some beautiful butterflies. Had an hour or so by the lovely pool to relax as pretty tired .
This evening had monkeys on our balcony but not great photos as mosquitoe screen . We finished off the day with cocktails on the roof in the middle of a big dramatic thunderstorm.Læs mere
