Iguazu Falls - Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay
So a brief hop up to Iguazu landed me in a 10 dollar wood lodge and one strange triple border. For the next three days I hopped across the borders 8 times and saw some serious nature. The falls were at a record low but they still were a spectacle to behold (even at their lowest they are bigger than Niagra or Victoria). The Devil´s Throat is a thundering assault on the senses and a great opportunity to catch a free shower if you have been on the run all day. Along the borders are awesome trails with hundreds of tropical birds, rodents, mammals and (think I may have heard one one night)...jaguars. Throw in some big time smuggling and a little wild west pandemonium and that about sums it up.
Creating these unique opportunities are the goal of every trip. There comes a point where there is so much sensory overload going on around me, I go into Kevin Spacey mode and turn off my mind...and just "let everything flow around and through me...and not try to hold on to it."
It works...
Bom dia e adeus para agora,
