We had a morning flight out of Buenos Aires into Iguazu Falls area. It was about a 2 hour flight. It was quite bouncy so no snacks or beverages were served.
As soon as we got to the hotel we had only a few minutes to get ready to head to the Brazilian side of the falls. We weren't even allowed to check in, but we could grab a couple of things like sunscreen and go. We took about an hour to get there and a big portion of the time was spent going through immigration between the two countries.
This is the bridge that divides Argentina from Brazil. The blue and white is Argentina and the green and yellow is Brazil .
We walked around and had views of the falls that we weren't able to get from Argentina. We had some really good views of the 20 % (which is the portion of falls on the Brazilian side) as well as the 80% (which is the Argentinian portion). We did get quite wet from the spray and then got poured on by the rain. What fantastic views of the falls. We were able to get a panoramic view of all of them.
It is difficult to get the full perspective as to how massive these falls are.
We then sat on the van and waited through immigration again. Our clothes were still quite damp by the time we arrived back at the hotel. We then had supper down in the bar area with folks from our group. There were several tables pushed together and we all enjoyed some food and liquid refreshments. It was a very nice relaxing time.

These are their raccoons that are all over the place and have rabies. They tell people to stay away but it seems to be a lost cause since people are constantly feeding them.
