Pictures, pictures & promises!

Finally there is some more stuff to look at, I updated almost every picture folder, so be sure to check them all out, even a few more Buenos Aires shots added.
The 18-lane BA highway, the Nokia shots from all around, &&& IGUAZU falls!

Monday I went to Iguazu falls with Ben, and we hooked up with a London friend of his, Karen (blonde), and she brought her friend Molly, all in there so you can have a look.
We went to the National Park together, there was some walking involved before we got there, but the payoff was amazing. Green all around, so many butterflies, and white water everywhere.
You really get an extreme closeup of the biggest waterfalls around, we also took the boat, which takes you literally in there, most powerful shower you can ever imagine, totally blinded.
Soaking wet gets a new dimension up there, but with the heat in the middle of the day almost unbearable it was a great way to cool down, just for a minute or two..

We walked around some more, and even got on the gas-powered train to El Diablo. Here was a continuous rainbow because of the crazy power of the water splashing all around in the sun. This is the real border between Brazil & Argentina, we were still on the Argentinian side, but at the far end of this waterfall you could already see the Brazilian flag waving to us!
A beautiful and very exhausting afternoon, time for steak!

After some quality time at the pool in our hostel-resort it was time to get into town and ready for dinner. Luckily I noticed this great Italian place the other night when we were walking around, it was time to splurge and go all out tonight, cause Ben, Karen & Molly would leave for Sao Paolo the next day.

Steaks & Salmon were on our menu, and wonderful Malbec Red to complete it all.
Of course some more cocktails back at the pool had to be done, not too many though, cause this hostel has the ridiculous checkout time of 10am! (first one in Argentina not to be 11am).

Tomorrow another short story, it is a little bit cloudy today from time to time, but the temperature is still in the 30s so all is well!

Big hug from Posadas, enjoy the pictures, check back soon!
