Travel Log 04 - 09 Iguazu falls Argentina
So after leaving Sao Paulo we arrived to Fozo do Iguazu the border town between argentina, paraguay in the brazilian side, we met up with our friends from norway we met up in the bus and went out to look for a cheap hostel for the night, we found one on the downtonish area of the town was good enough we got a room with 6 beds for each one of us.
We hanged out during the day looking for an adapter for my camera and went to this churrasqueria buffet for all you can eat for 10 reais where we met this really cool colombian guy that was big otaku about japanese manga he gave us some free drinks and cheap discounts at the restaurant..
The following day we decided we wanted to experience the falls from the argentinian side since the brazilian side is mostly just a big panoramic view and you can't really immerse yourself in the falls as the argentinian side is..
We arrived to Puerto Iguazu across the border and our driver left us in the hostel area kind of away from all other hotels we were out on the search for a bed but there was nothing must of them were full and actually few of them were i think too sketched out by our looks that they told us they didn't have any beds available when i know they did because i saw other people coming in taking rooms but anyways we continued our search until we actually found the perfect one, with a great pool and shanti vibe it reminded me of a european lodge..
Had pizza for lunch/dinner and sleep well!
Next day the great adventure began! We set out for some last minute snack shopping and while i was waiting outside this store this super cute street dog came in and share love, this dog has a great vibe! We were also on the hunt for some exchange places for Japanese - Reais and met up with this cute cat in the street ohww!!
All systems ready took the collective bus for 10 reais to the Falls and voallha! as soon as we arrived there we decided we wanted to check out the main attraction of the site the devil's throat We took the cute train and headed towards the massive mouth of the falls!! As you arrive in the train station you have to walk about 2 kilometers to the actually falls the road is cute full of wild life and great natural passageways unfortunately there is this metal road that connects the whole site so you are not really walking on the earth but on this fake road but i also understand it serves many purposes such as wheel chair access for elderly and people with disabilities so it was still fun! :) but many of my friends were complaining the whole time about it..
I took this really strong energy pill that anni gave me he got from the corner store and wow it was intense feeling, gave me a NITRO of adrenaline so i was walking on fire as i approached the falls i could hear the water whispering announcing its majestic splendor and wow it did!
This is what i found!
We snap a few pictures around the big fall recording few videos as well
We continued our trail towards the middle center of the falls, also a note to know the argentinian side of the falls contain more than 175 free falls so there is giant falls everywhere!! along the way we met up with our cute animal friends that welcomed us into their home.
We climbed the trail towards many lakes and natural formations the weather was perfect!
snap a few panoramic photos of this amazing place, this place is called the upper circuit which connects the lower top of the great falls..
this whole area had an estimate of 50 falls all around some of them massive scale some of them mini size all epic and beautiful!
Ran into this beautiful flying creature sporting the 88 infinity logo :)
Snap more pic along the way!
We set up for break and ate our sandwiches and drank some water and chilled for few minutes while the whole park was starting at wararu's finger shoes..
We continued our journey towards the boat area along the lower circuit of the falls and wow as we walked more and more it was becoming more and more epic!!
We finally reached the boat area as we descended towards the bottom of the lake side, we secure our water shields and all systems were ready to experience the falls from a closer perspective, at first i thought it was going to be a really cheese tourist trap but i went with the advise of the hostel owner telling me it was epic epic epic so i went ahed with her advise and wow as we got on the boat we speed up so fast we were all screaming as we approach the devils throat, the boat turned back on its side having the whole entire back area of the boat splashed by the waterfall was so fun!!!
El capitan looked so serious as he prepared to immerse us in the water experience i will never forget his look and his serious face as he prepared the boat to approach it towards the falls..
As soon as we got out of the falls one of the guides was recording the whole experience and was like you guys want more ?? we were like YEAHHH YEAHHH you guys want more??? YESS YESS!!
So we went to the other side of the falls and FUCK!! we went inside the actually falls i couldn't believe it
i was like o god damn it!!! wowwwwww!!!! you couldn't even breath of how powerful the water is we got completely cover in water the entire time i was screaming SUGOIIIII SUGOIII for cool in japanese jajajajaj
i tried to snap a few pic but the whole thing was so intense my brain was too busy processing what was happening, as we were inside the falls there was a rainbow with us it was amazing!!!
We dried out and walked the rest of the time towards the exit marking an unforgettable experience at the great iguazu falls!!!
