Onward and upward!

Well we're off the ship and headed to the domestic airport for a flight north to Iguazu to see the falls.  We arrive around 5 pm and it's very stormy.  Rain, lightning, thunder!  We hadn't anticipated this and wonder if this will be a wasted trip.  Fortunately luck has followed us and the weather clears the next morning as we are picked up by our tour guide.  He is great.  Very knowledgeable.  This is a huge park.  


We board a small train for about 20 minutes that takes us closer to the falls.


Well laid out with walkways to protect the environment.  




Magnificent!


This Coati was a pretty friendly fellow.  These were abundant in the park.


This is very close to Brazil.  Very tropical.



We took the boat excursion where they drive right up to the falls.  You get absolutely soaked!  What a great perspective to be able to look up at these wonderful falls!


Some where over the rainbow!





The next day we go into the town of Iguazu and walk to the view point where the three countries, Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay meet.  We fly back to Buenos Aires in the afternoon.
