Day 1 in Iguazu: The electricity was out at the hostel but the bar was up and running. So, we drank. Jess and Kirsti may even have jumped into the pool, in the middle of winter mind you, in their clothes. I, being the more sensible sister, continued to drink indoors and stayed dry.
Day 2 in Iguazu: We drove to the Falls, the widest in the world. It was a spectacular sight and rather than wax poetic in words, I´ll let the pictures do the talking below. One regret though, instead of taking a boat out to the Falls like the sensible Kirsti, the rest of our little backpacking family for the day decided to pass. So, we drank. Do you see a trend here? 1.5 liters of Quilmes beer later, we returned back to the hostel to nap, shower, sleep off the afternoon boozing only to wake up and drink 1 (or 5) too many free capirinhas at the hostel bar. Jess even managed to set up a game of capirinha pong... Bad idea. But it was our last night with Nick the Scotsman and Kirsti the Kiwi and so, we drank.
Day 3 in Iguazu: Hungover and tired, we managed to waste the day away. Our main tasks included and were essentially limited to: booking a bus ticket outta Iguazu, eating lunch, and trying to get un-hungover. Then back on the bus for another 16 hours to Santa Fe in central Argentina.
Iguazu felt like a vacation within our vacation. We saw an amazing natural attraction but then managed to get in some major R&R time. There wasn´t anything else to see or do in town so it was nice to veg without feeling guilty about it.
Our little backpacking family for the day: Rodney the Canadian, Carl from ATL, Kirsti, Nick, and Chris the other Scotsman |
Coatis in the park: they can and they will bite. |
Ant the monkey: she can and will bite |
Dos Hermanas | Two Sisters |
Nick and Jess: Brothers from a different mother |
