After another long bus ride we arrived to Puerto Igauzu.  It is a really nice gateway town.  It is warm, full of tropical vegitation, close to the falls, has good places to eat, and it has a brazillian embassy there.  So while we were there to see the falls we also got our Brazil visas for only $150 each.  (does sarcasm translate via typing?)

Igauzu National Park was amazing.  There were all these different trails you could walk to see more waterfalls and different viewpoints.  Plus there was a train that took you around the park to the main viewpoint.  The main falls is huge and loud!  There is so much to look at you get hypnotized by the sight of it.  You can just stare off in any direction and be mesmerized.  It was really cool and I am glad I got to see it.

From there we took the nicest bus possible to Buenos Aires.  It was an 18 hour ride, but you would have never guess it!  The time passed so quickly.  The seat reclined into a flat bed and Chris and I had our own little compartment with a tv to watch movies.  We got served breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  Plus we got a glass of whisky, unlimited wine, and champagne after dinner.  It was better then any first class section on a plane I have ever seen.
