The Brazilian Iguaçu Falls

Today was a little less active day today, we went back into Brazil to see the overview of the Iguaçu falls from a greater distance, and to get some better views of Garganta del Diablo, the biggest falls. The two sides compliment each other perfectly and offer quite different views of the falls. The Argentine side is very 'up close and personal' whereas from the Brazilian side you get grand, sweeping vistas of the falls.

There was also an amazing walkway that had been constructed at the foot of the falls that gave some amazing views, as well as a thorough soaking from all the spray! We had a great picnic of breads and olives overlooking the falls, whilst admiring lots of the wildlife that is around today: hummingbirds, big lizards, insects we've never seen before, and butterflies everywhere. The views were still as breathtaking, even on the second day!

Tomorrow, we're off to Buenos Aires for the Gauchos, Tango and the biggest bluest steak Ash has ever eaten. Oh, and here's a picture of Ash updating the blog. By the way, Bianca is dictating this blog from her hammock in the front of this picture!
