Brazil / Argentina travel..
Had a couple of days to kill before crew change so why not travel a bit?
Had a chance to see the Devil's Throat, massive falls in the national park of Cataratas. Some forces I must say. End of rainy season Contributing.

Morning Coffee..
Strolling
Very calm and laid back little town
Lunch break
Cataratas Hotel
Hearing the falls
The falls are comprised of 275 drops with
the deepest of 82 meters at
“Devil's Throat “(Garganta Del Diablo)
making them second in height to the Victoria
Falls.
Niagra Falls have a drop of 50m
but are first with regard to the amount of water passing
over the falls. Iguazu
Falls are again in 2nd place
Seeing the falls
Most
of the falls are in Argentina with the border dividing Devil's Throat. They can
be reached from Puerto Iguazú in Argentina, Foz do Iguaçu in Brazil, as well as
from Ciudad del Este in Paraguay.
Throughout the park there are notices
warning against feeding the Coati's. These large Raccoon-like rodents have been
encouraged in the past by tourists feeding them and now can be quite aggressive
in their quest for food.
"Peekaboe"!
Massive
Nice pic for using only my Galaxy Note II.
Soaking the atmosphere(and moist)
Yes, they had to walk the board and now they're drenched
But happy..
Sharing a beer with, and feeling very close to nature.

One of the first things you will notice is
the profusion of butterflies in the national park. It is quite common for them
to alight on you - I have been told that this is due to your body salt. One of
the most frequently seen of the butterflies has the nickname '88' because of
the markings on its wings.
