I've just visited the Iguassu falls.....they are spectacular. We arrived in the Brazilian town of Iguassu (which is not actually spelt like that) at about 10am from the night bus. We quickly had a shower then met up an hour later to go and visit the Brazilian side of the falls. On the Brazilian side is a visitors centre and then a walk way along the river to the falls, which ends up at a platform over part of the falls. They really are spectacular. We got soake...

Hi!Well we got to Santa Cruz and it was a lovely hot day, so we all decided to find a pool the next day and sunbathe. Of course when the next day came it was overcast and cold so we has to entertain ourselves in Santa Cruz by walking around the town (which was pretty much a ghost town on a Sunday), and going on a pedalo (Peasholm Park style), and going on the internet. Anyway that night we had to catch an overnight train to the Bolivian border, then a taxi to the...

Unfortunately the first...

I ordered a beef stir fry, but when it arrived it looked suspiciously like chicken in egg. The lady insisted that it was beef, and needless to say I didn´t eat much that night.Anyway the nex...

Hola! We arrived in La Paz, Bolivia after a long journey across the border (controls at the border were not very strict - we could have smuggled someone easily). My opinion of La Paz was that it was like a Peruvian city, just more smelly and dirty. On the night we arrived in La Paz we had a goodbye dinner at a restaurant which put on traditional dancing and music. Some of the masks used in the dancing were really freaky - I'm not sure how authentic they were. ...
