After a fairly comfortable 20hrs on the bus we arrived in Puerto Iguazu. Nice first impression of a small but friendly town with all the traveller would need. Checked in to the hostel inn and watched as the huge droplets of rain continued to pelt the red roads. Braved the elements and headed into town for dinner.
Mmm red wine and steak!
Off to the falls, words just wont do the impressive awe inspiring sight justice so watch this space and hopefully we can get pics up on the site soon. Basking in sunshine for the day, listening to the roar of the falls, the day was almost too perfect until lunchtime....
Sat down for a bite to eat in one of the outdoor cafes and noticed that there were a large amount of what Don and I decided were ant eaters (raccoon like creatures!). Not being the most comfortable around animals i was beginning to get slightly nervous and then as if they could smell my fear one leaped on to the table and grabbed my sandwich clean out of my hand. The little bastard! One indoor sandwich later we spent the rest of the day kicking racoons, I mean admiring the falls!
Settled into a wee restaurant-bar for the evening and had fun night with an Irish couple who happened to have got married on the same day as us and who did the voice over for the Irish green power ranger, not sure which is cooler! Also enjoyed another bottle of red wine. Watch out Dad Slatford - your cellar is in trouble!
