10 hours on the bus from Sao Paulo to Foz do Iguaçu. Despite changin my shirt before getting on the bus, I still smelt like I had been walking around downtown part of Sao Paulo all day! Luckily for Cameron, there were spare seats on the bus, so we didn´t have to sit next to eachother the whole trip! There were a bunch of GAP Tour young uns on th...

What a magnificent sight the Iguaçu Falls are; really quite impossible to describe the sheer scale of the world´s largest waterfalls - I´ll let the pictures speak for themselves! Arrived in Foz slightly dishevelled after my first 15hr bus journey - there woud be plenty more of these to come. The town itself has little to recommend it apart from ...

Now in Foz do Iguaçu, and apart from the ****** rain its really very nice! After finishing off our brief trip to Sao Paulo, we jumped on a 16 hour bus to Foz do Iguaçu.

The airport at Foz do Iguacu looked like it was built for bringing in people from all over the world to see the Falls. When we were in the flight we could see river Iguacu cutting its way through Brazilian forests. We booked a taxi that would drive us to the Brazilian side of the falls the day we arrived. For our accommodation we'd booked a room...

Water Water Water and Birds Birds Birds We arrived in Foz de Iguacu in the morning at 6 am and it is really too early, because the rooms in the hostel and the breakfast were not ready. And so we had to wait two hours :( But we got the possibility to take a shower in the public toilet there. And you can check your E-Mails 24 hours for free ;) The...

We arrived in Foz D'Iguacu, here on in referred to us as Foz, at just after lunch time on Sunday. And instantly I tootled off to find out about buses to Buenos Aires later on that week. There was Crucero Del Norte right opposite a stand for the hostel I was staying at in Foz. I booked myself onto the bus to Buenos Aires the following Wednesday a...

So we set up camp in Hostel Paudimar (which if anybody finds themselves in need of accommodation I highly recommend it - its like another world). We first took another delightful bus journey to the Argentinian side on a days tour. The Argentinian side allows you to get up close to the Falls and see them from different angles. There are something...
