Hello everyone.

Here we are at IGUAZU FALLS. The plane was only delayed one hour and it all worked out fine. We figured out where to store our cruise luggage fairly easily a tthe Domestic airport in BA and then off to join Gerry and Peggy at the gate. I do believe they were glad to see us!!

Flight was fine and we arrived at the Sheraton Hotel around 3.30 pm. Quick change of clothes and off to the train to visit the falls. Well it was lovely when we left and as we started to walk to the train some dark clouds came over. Right as we arrived at the little station, thunder and heavy downpours of rain. We thought it would blow over fairly quickly however it just kept coming down. The train is open so you would get soaked going home and from the train to the hotel is a good 5 to 10 minutes walk so we figured we were going to get soaked anyway. Once you are completely wet how much wetter can you get anyway.

They were selling ponchos in the store so Ken ran over and got four ponchos and we decided to go see the falls. Just as we put on our ponchos it stopped. We figured we are blessed.

The metal walkway out to the falls is well done. It took about 10 minutes to get there and the falls here are really quite spectacular. Easy to view and a LOT OF WATER.

All waterfalls are different and we have seen some great ones in our travels. There are up there amongst the best. I cant remember the names right now but one waterfall in NORWAY where the horses and buggys can take you up with the glacier at the top of the waterfall and also the falls out of PUERTO MONTT in Chile were also pretty neat.

We made it back in one piece and although slightly damp certainly not drenched. Then we cleaned up and had an early dinner and enjoyed the company of Gerry and Peggy.

This morning the boat trip was on the agenda but I think we are all feeling a little lazy today so we had a leisurely breakfast and will be heading off the airport shortly. Cant wait to see everyone in BA.

Be back later
