Iguazu Falls




2/12/2011

Arose early thinking we were on same time as Brazilian side of Iguazu. No one in restaurant. Got coffee and came back at 7:30. Walked to lower falls though the sign “No Entrada” was still displayed. Huge volumes of water on side falls and the main ones. At the Salto Bossetti Falls we got drenched from the billows of mists. With plenty of time we then walked the upper falls, not quite as spectacular but impressive views of drop offs . Went to breakfast just in time. Talked to receptionist at hotel who said we had time to take the small train to the Devils Throat. Friendly agent let us cut in to catch the next train. Long walk over metal platforms to get to the boiling caldron with huge spray. Back to the train with enough time to pack our bags and meet our driver Silvio who drove us to rondevouz spot for pick up in funky bus to Yacutinga Environment Lodge.
