A brief burst of activity in amongst the general lull in Buenos Aires (to be blogged separately) was a quick visit to Iguazu Falls on the border between Argentina and Brazil. The falls were one of the very few natural wonders in South America that I'd actually heard about before reading the RG, due to them being arguably the most famous natural sight on the continent.

More great photos
Hi John, I enjoyed your blog. I was there in '96 and got caught in a torential rainstorm...it added to the general discomfort of steamy heat. You are right, the views are spectacular. Did you really take a taxi back to BA? What did that cost you? I signed up for your blog so I won't miss any of them. Carolyn ( gunga)

Glad you made it to Foz do Iguaçu
Hey John, So glad you were able to make it to Foz do Iguaçu, even though you had to rush the Brazilian side. The photos brought back to me some happy memories. I especially liked the butterfly photos, since they weren't so abundant when I was there.
