Llegamos a Iguazú a la hora de comer después de 12 horas de avión hasta Buenos Aires y después de otras 2 horas de avión a Iguazú, más las esperas varias en los aeropuertos. Como podeis imaginar David durmió casi todo el viaje y yo.. pues hice lo que pude, hubo un momento crisis como aterriza como puedas en plan "Quiero salir de aquíiii" fue interior, tranquilos, no monté espectáculo ni nada pero estaba que me tiraba de los pelos. No pegaba ojo miraba a mi izquierda y David plácidamente dormi...
Iguazú, Argentina laura.davidEl primer día ya en Argentina tocó madrugón para llegar a las cataratas en el primer tren que cruza el parque nacional, valió la pena, no había casi gente y vimos la Garganta del Diablo de maravilla, sin aglomeraciones. Los cerca de 1.500m de cataratas ofrecen un espectáculo increíble. Además tuvimos la suerte de que había llovido los últimos tres días y el río Iguazú bajaba muy caudaloso. A lo largo de la mañana recorrimos las cataratas por la parte superior y después de comer hicimos La Gra...

... crawl and allowed us to take some pictures. We were then all told to make sure cameras, shoes etc were safely put away in the waterproof bags, before the driver rammed the throttle and absolutely gunned the boat towards the waterfalls. He slowed as we got right next to the falling water, but we all got absolutely drenched - it was like having a cold shower. You also couldn`t see as the spray was so fierce. I wasn`t prepared for how wet we`d get - while the three other guys all ...
Puerto Iguazu, Argentina alastair6... about 300 feet. You’ll notice in the photos, the top of la garganta and then another view that shows more of the force. Tomorrow I’ll be on the Brazilian side which will provide a fuller view of it.
Also got to see some wildlife. There’s a photo of a toucan and one of a monkey swinging through the trees (yes, trust me, it’s a monkey!). Don’t confuse it with the photo of me. I actually ...
... big buffet dinner last night and there was a tango show after which I found mesmerising. I love Strictly Come Dancing and all those kind of programmes so hopefully I will get a dance lesson in BA. The dance looked so complicated so I can't wait to see a proper show in BA. We had a big storm then last night - there was loads of thunder and lightening and an unreal amount of rain falling. It is dry now but dull and overcast so its a good day to travel.
Puerto Iguazu, Litoral, Argentina sharor... The company were out to get as much money as possible, at a cost to everyone´s comfort. To say we were a little disappointed would be an understatement! HOWEVER, the scenery of the Solar, the volcanoes, geysers and lagoons full of flamigoes more than made up for it. There really is no other place like this, it´s incredible. The nights were fairly terrifying, the first hostel was made entirely of salt!! So, so cold, you wouldn´t believe. Mel really suffered with the altitude on the ...
Puerto Iguazu, Litoral, Argentina melleach... black, while the hembras and jovens (female and young) are a blond colour. We left the wetlands and arrived around 8:30 PM at a small town that I can neither pronounce nor spell. From there we made the decision to take the bus leaving at midnight to Puerto Iguazu. We arrived at Puerto Iguazu the next morning, then had to kill a few hours while waiting for all the hostels to open. We found a basic but nice family-run hotel. Still sleep-deprived, and not ...
Puerto Iguazu, Argentina nathangie... côté argentin, nous apercevons des hors-bords surpuissants qui parcourent le cours d'eau mais nous ne comprenons pas trop pourquoi. Nous voyons une multitude de touristes qui se déplacent sur les chemins de la rive argentine, à priori beaucoup plus touristique. On remonte péniblement le chemin car il fait extrêmement chaud pour finalement arriver à une passerelle qui permet de s'avancer plus près du bas des chutes. L'eau qui se vaporise lors de son impact ...
Puerto Iguazu, Litoral, Argentina coleauxv... a lot (no fan and only tiny a/c unit), we walked back towards the bus station to grab a (suprisingly) tasty lunch and then jumped on the 3:10pm bus to the national park which contained the spectacular falls.
It cost 4 pesos on the bus and 40 pesos each to enter the park, then a short walk to the ...

Having given up on the idea of going to see the Brazilian side of the falls, Boo and I slept in. By the time we hauled ourselves out of bed, breakfast had long since ended, so we decided to go foraging around town. We didn't walk far before Boo spotted ice cream which she insisted she had to have. So my child had ice cream for breakfast. I am a very bad mother.
After wandering around town for a bit, we went back to ...
