Athena - Argentina & Brazil- Las Cataratas de Iguazu - Iguauzu Falls

Las Cataratas de Iguazu - Iguauzu Falls


   Then we got back on the bus for three more hours until we arrived at the town of Iguazu. After settling into our hostel we passed the afternoon by chilling in the pool and the a few of us left to walk around the small city. Our tour guides cooked an asado (barbecue) for us. The menu was literally meat (all kinds of beef and sausage), bread, wine. That's it, no side dishes. Must say the chorizo sausage was my favorite. Though it was a painfully slow dinner because there were 50 of us and the meat only came off of the grill bit by bit.

  We spent our first day at the waterfalls on the Argentinian side and the falls were amazing. I won't even try to describe them with words...checkout these pics instead. We got really close to the falls and there were places were you could fall of the edge if you weren't careful. We also took a boat ride in the river and, of course, we went underneath one of the falls. It was both awesome and scary; I couldn't believe I was literally underneath one of the coolest waterfalls in the world. Oh, and while we were there we saw a proposal, and of course she said yes. None of us knew the happy couple but it was a wonderful sight to see.
