Iguazú Falls
07th July 2010
The impressive Iguazú Falls between Argentina and Brazil, consists of some 275 separate falls. The most spectacular is the Devil´s Throat, a powerful torrent of water plunging down a narrow gorge, wetting viewers with rising mist. On the Argentine side there are many walking trails to view the falls from all aspects.
.
We took the thrilling boat ride under the falls getting completely soaked. We encountered monkeys, coatis, caimen, birds and many colourful butterflies in the park. Our day finished with a tranquil float down a calmer part of the river sunnounded by jungle.
