Foz Do Iguacu

Hey all, It´s been a busy day, I went over the border from Brazil to Argentina for the day to see the Argentinian side of the falls, which are simply spectacular and then got very wet in a boat ride which takes you all the way to the mouth of the falls, so it was a good chance to cool off from the hot sun which burns relentlessly here in South America, and just as bad as in Brisbane. Yesterday was the Brazillian side of the falls which rock as well, and a visit to a bird park with Tucans, fire pheasants, Macaws, even Kayman and Monyets Johan! :-) The Tucans are fearless and whizz right by your head to make so amazing photo ops. Last night was dinner at a steakhouse with multiple dance acts from all over South America, even these guys who swing the flaming ballsa round their heads (nuts!) and the crazy Brazillians who always amp up the crowd. I asked some of the waiters where the Lambada clubs were Monica, no one knew, so I´m having some withdrawals. Prior to that was an all yacht cruise through the islands which pepper around the coast of Parati, which consisted on sunning, and island hopping and jumping off the boat to sim up to deserted beaches, so not a bad way to spend the day? Parati is an awesome little coastal town with cobbled streets that get washed by the tide every night and had a very Medditeranean feel to it that gave so many good photos and memories. After this was camping at a water park were stray dogs roamed through the campside, tipped over bins, barked for hours and hours, growled and chased some of my fellow campers, certainly not boring! So, tomorrow, it´s Paraguay for a few days, providing the visas get approved in the morning (fingers crossed), otherwise it´s into Argetina for a few days before I catch up with some of the other crew and we´ll make our way to Buenos Aires to do a few essential things like washing, phonecalls and the like. Hope all is well in sunny Brisbane, when a PC in Latin America has a CD drive, I´ll through up some pictures. Adam
