Wowza what a big waterfall, it is almost 3 kilometres wide and there are 2 sides, the first we saw was from the Brazil side. I can't believe how well done the walkways and trails are. In this pic you get quite wet from the spray walking to the end. it's a little chaotic with people clambering to take photos and video. We asked a guy to take our pic and he fiddled around for ages before he sorted it out...and yet, not a single pic of us on the Nikon Coolpix! haha i love travelling....... the next day we toured the Argentine side, much bigger area and lots of walking. Every vantage point imaginable. I think we have enough pics and video to last a lifetime, how many pics does one need of the same waterfall?? We also did a fun boat tour.....took us under the spray and totally soaked us, and then travelled downriver where we hopped on a jungle truck to go through the rainforest. I was not expecting to see wildlife but in fact there was giant catfish in the Iguazu River, monkeys in the trees, raccoons (coates) which have quite different faces than the North American raccoons I have seen, much more of an 'anteater' kind of snout. Since dumbass tourists feed them, they can be quite aggressive and annoying, not at all scared of people. What a great day, and luckily we had a private guide, who organised it so that we missed the huge crowds of tour buses with German and French tourists.
