Buenos Aires and IGUAZU!!!!!!!!!!

I'm in Puerto Iguazu right now which is the boarder town before I move into Brazil. The Iguazu falls are located just outside this city which are absolutely AMAZING. I'll get to that in just a bit.

First, Buenos Aires. I only stayed in B.A. for about 4 days. It was a nice city but I was ready to get out of the city for awhile because I had stayed in Santiago/Valparaiso for over 2 weeks. There were lots of cool old buildings... more so than any of the other cities I have been to.





I mostly just walked around town and visited parks... and obviously ate the steak. The steaks were pretty good and fairly cheap (about 6 or 6 bucks) but generally when you order a steak that is what you get. A slab of meat on a plate. Anyways, I visited the cemetery which was pretty damn cool imo. There were TONS of statues...



Lots of cool mausoleums...





There are many famous Argentinian people buried here but I don't really know much of the history (or pretty much any of the history of Argentina) so I didn't know which mausoleums were the famous people or not. It was a really amazing cemetery though.

I also went to the Botanical gardens which was... well, kind of just like any other park. It was nice though.





The famous El Caminito street in Buenos Aires was a bit... meh. Way to many tourists (and people trying to sell you shit) and to me seemed kind of like a fake/wanna be Valparaiso. But it had purty colors!!



And people dancing Tango...



I went to a tango show the last night I was there too. It was pretty cool but I wasn't allowed to take any pics. I got dinner for free too which was awesome! It was like a $30 dinner too with all you can drink wine... woot!

That's about it for ol' B.A.

Iguazu Falls is by far the most amazing sight I have ever seen in my life. I wish I could somehow describe it or capture it on film somehow but I just don't think it can be done. Absolutely amazing... and just think how many fish die every day from this thing...













I took a ton of pictures... these are just a few. My camera died shortly after La Garganta del Diablo (Throat of the Devil... the one I am standing in front of) which was a pretty depressing feeling when it shut off. At least I got almost everything on camera. After La Garganta del Diablo I found a hike off the beaten path that had very few people on it. It lead to a swimming hole at the bottom of a waterfall. On the way back from the swimming hole I saw some type of monkey in the trees... was kicking myself for not charging my battery at that point but I guess I will see plenty of wildlife when I go to the Pantanal in Brazil.

Tomorrow I am going to Brazil. I don't know if I am going to do the Foz do Iguacu side of the waterfalls or not, I probably will. After that I'm going to Campo Grande, Brazil to visit the Pantanal... from there who knows?
