IGUAZU FALLS

Yesterday we left San Francisco at 7:00am and arrived in Brazil at 1:00 p.m. We made great time and had fun playing Outburst along the way. Our first stop in Brazil was to McDonalds (American food!) and then on to Iguazu Falls - the Brazil side. After seeing the falls we checked into the hotel and headed out for Pizza Hut (more American food).

Tuesday we went to Iguazu Falls – the Argentina side. The two sides are very different. In Brazil, you get a breath-taking panoramic view. In one location you can walk out over the falls and feel the mist on your face. Man, you feel so small! On the Argentina side you do a lot of walking (with some help from the trains, which the kids love) and you get to see the falls up close and personal and from various angles. You can look down on them or up at them or straight on. We took a little boat over to an island and climbed about a billion stairs (it sure felt that way). In the past 4 years Jeff and I have made the Brazil/Argentina trip 7 times with friends, family and students that have come down. The awesomeness of it all never dulls. God’s creation is MAGNIFICENT!
