Waterfalls and cocktails
... of you and is replaced by a huge plume of spray and hear a distant roar. For both of us, this was the highlight of both days at the falls...words really don't do it justice but I'll have a go. Up close, it lives up to its name - the roar of water on all sides and the spray obscuring the bottom does lend a certain air of finality - if you went in there, there would be no coming out... Despite the sheer raw power, swifts dart in and out of the spray to ...
Argentina - Part 5 (Iguazu Falls)

Paraguay
... We then made our way to a local hotel who provided us with warmth & breakfast at 7am - which was very welcomed & appreciated. After digesting our early breakfast we set off for a few hours in the local hot springs - thermal del dayman. Gorgeous 40C pools of natural warm water - just what we needed after a long cold night on a bus. It seemed the whole town was there on a tues morning, not sure why they weren't at work, but times of work seem to be very different over ...
