Hi there! That's my dinner. It's got intestines in it!!! I've already gone to Iguazu Falls. The restaurant I'm in is having a BBQ. It's an eat as much as you can BBQ. I can't wait to see what's on the menu. That is, if they can have it... It's been raining all evening even when I was trying to get into the pool! I guess it's because we are in a tropical rain forest. But it is still quite hot at times.
Iguazu Falls was great! We went through the forest on a truck. The road was really bumpy! During the ride we saw toucans in the trees and cappochino monkeys! (I thought the name was quite funny!) We then went on a boat. It was calm at first but then went through rapids! We could feel the water spurting in our faces! We saw and went into a small gap and there were loads of big waterfalls. It was called The Devils Throat. Then we came and around a small island to more waterfalls on the other side. I'm not sure what they're called. Then the boat took us right under the waterfall. Then back to the Devils Throat. When we came out we were absolutely saturated! I will never forget the amount of butterflies! Some were gigantic and others were small. Then we got on a train that took us to a rowing boat. We had to put on life jackets and there was a many there to row the boat. And at one stage we thought we were going over the edge of the waterfall!
Later on, we saw a cayman - a type of alligator. At one stage we were walking over a bridge and underneath was a gigantic spider! I also got to feed birds out of my hand!
