Iguazu!

Posted by Dave and Zephie

From Bonito we took an epic bus journey all the way down to Iguazu - an area that borders Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina!

The best (and only thing, really) about it, is the AMAZING WATERFALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



The falls were incredible! It took us two days to see them in their entirety. They are surrounded by jungle and lush forest so the whole thing felt like a big adventure! It really is a magical place with millions of butterflies and rainbows round every corner. We spotted loads of animals, including lizards and a snake and loads of coatis!!! Here is one particularly cheeky one....



We had a brilliant time there and went on a boat ride that takes you into the falls themselves, as well as taking a trek to another smaller water fall where we had a nice relaxing swim.






We nearly got locked in the park because they decided to shut it all down about an hour before they were supposed to (and when we were half way out of the park splashing around in a secret waterfall!!) so we had a little run through the jungle, which was quite funny looking back on it but actually a bit terrifying at the time, because it was then that we saw the snake and remembered stories of people getting mauled by jaguars...!!! We survived though! Hahaha!
