Iguazu falls

Panorama from the Brazilian side

Awesome. Huge. Spectacular. Just some of the words I might use to describe Iguazu falls. Now included in the seven natural wonders of the world it didn't disappoint and crossing the border to view them from Brazil as well as Argentina was definitely worth it.

I was also lucky to have amazing weather on both days that I visited as I put the day in between with torrential rain to good use by nipping into Paraguay to stock up on US dollars to change on the black market.

I loved both sides of the falls. Brazil offered amazing panoramic views along a single trail which I took with two lovely Spanish speaking guys who even complimented me on my Spanish which made my day!

Soaking wet from the boat trip in Argentina

In Argentina you could get much closer to the falls and I spent the whole day exploring the various trails in the park including taking a boat trip under the falls and swimming in a deserted pool in one of the small falls at the end of a very hot day.

It was then time to move on to Buenos Aires where I was looking forward to meeting various people I'd met along my travels.
