Iguaçu Falls

---

I left Bonito, Brasil by twelve hour bus to arrive at the city of Foz de Iguaçu. We head out to see the Iguaçu Falls on the Brazillian side. The falls have two side one is on the Brazillian side and the other is on the Argentina side. I decided to take the helicopter ride to get a birds eye view of the falls. The pilot took off and we soared through the air for fifthteen minutes while watching the spectacular Iguaçu Falls from above. From the air the falls look great but actually small. Then we headed by van to the entrance of the Brazillian side of the Falls. After entering you walk along a path while seeing Quati which are in the racoon family run around the place. You walk along the path viewing the falls and eventually getting to the bottom of the falls and following a platform and walking through the mist of the falls until you are drenched. Up close the falls are gigantic and the power of the water is unbelieveable especially when you get to the devil´s throat. Tomorrow I am heading over to the Argentina side to get the other view.

Damn, that rocks
looks like blast. I have always wanted to fly in a helicopter. That would be a treat in itself and you get to see the falls, bonus. However, Iam affaid to say it out loud because with my luck it would be in airlife but if I get my choice it be a trip like yours. Have fun and see you soon.
