We were sad to be departing Paraty, our adopted home for the previous four nights and a place we will remember for a long time to come. I suppose it is better to leave a place and feel a sense of sadness at the departure than linger too long and leave feeling fed up, but Paraty felt like one of those places where our stay would never reach such a limit. Beaches, beauty and atmosphere, the town h... Read Full Entry

We are Amy and Chris. After completing our first attempt at a round the world trip in 2012, we are currently fitting in careers around our enduring need to see the world.

I loved how your blog has such rich detail about the culture and the environment of South America. It sounds like you have had an amazing experience and are loving every minute of it. Your use of photography in the blog is amazing, you have really captured the natural beauty in this environment and it really communicates how beautiful the world really is.

OK, but...
Excellent pictures. The Iguazú Falls are in the limit of Argentina and Brazil. The Iguazú National Park belongs to Argentina. When you are in the balcony watching the Falls to what is known as the Garganta del Diablo you are in Argentina. That is not Brazil. I am from Argentina and although I am NOT a nationalist, I think it´s very important to make it clear. Hugs. Graciela.

Brazil....
Your writing and of course, the awesome photography, are really making me want to go to Brazil! Wow! I wonder if I took back my $1,100 shoes, if I could afford it? ;)

Completely understand your fascination with these beautiful birds!!!! We spent two days at the falls looking for them as to us they were a symbol that we were both in the 'rainforest' and also in S.America. We even convinced each other that the black dot sized silhouette we spotted was one to keep us happy. Luckily on our second day we spotted a couple up a tree as we were leaving, we would have walked straight past them if it wasn't for a group of Japanese peeps crowding around excitingly taking photos... God bless the Japanese!!! :)

God bless, indeed!
We loved them!! They're so peculiar looking. Chris still has slight bruising on his elbow as one had a little chomp.

I cannot believe how beautifully breathtaking your photos are. So so stunning. Are you guys professional photographers or just very talented? I went to Iguassu a few years ago, but only had a point and shoot camera, so your pictures really put mine to shame. Please publish a book or calendar with your best photos. :-)

Unfortunately not...
we're not professional, just have enough opportunity to practice at the moment in beautiful places such as Iguacu! Thanks for your kind words.

You do need to make a book of these pictures!
So you would recommend getting to the falls early, right? Is one day enough at the Falls?
