Right. This won't take long.

The Iguacu Falls, one of Brazils natural wonders. Here goes.

They're huge. ENORMOUS. Eye-bendingly, sense-stoppingly, stupefyingly big. 2.7km across, over 270 separate waterfalls, sitting in a beautiful national park (rather than an amusement park a lá Niagara).

On the walk to the Falls (there I go with my unnecessary capitals again) through the forest trail you just keep turning corners and seeing more...and more...and more of them.

Took us a 23 hour bus ride to get here, we've spent 2 days here, and are getting ready for another 16 hours on a bus to get to our next destination.

Worth it? Yep - every bumsore, leg cramping minute of it.

More thumbnails ...

Well, thanks for depressing us all here in Sandyford even further,,, our only saving grace was that you had to endure 23 hours on a bus.
Any potential retailers out there? If we can just tilt 3-rock 45 degrees... maybe, just maybe... Simon

Alright, I admit it. I'm quite jealous of your adventures at this point. Your pictures are just amazing and provide quite a contrast to the littered streets outside my office window. Nonetheless, I'd like to see a picture of Richard trying to communicate with a Sloth before you leave South America.
