Wonder if anybody is actually reading this blog? Anyway, we decided after all to stay a couple of days in Puerto Iguassu, visiting the Argentinian side again and just chillin´ at the pool at Hostel Inn. Hostel Inn is a suberb and cheap hostel with tons of backpackers, recommended to anyone who is heading for Iguassu Falls. The Argentinian side is by far the best side to visit, but it`s def worth doing the Brazilian as well. Both sides can easily be done in a day. Brazilian side offers a more panoramic view of the falls, plus an extreme close up under Garganta del Diablo. The Argentinian side on the other hand offer many different views, panoramic, close up, river walks, more falls etc... It also has more acitivties.

After two nights in Puerto Iguassu, we crossed the Brazilian border again and then into Paraguay. Ciudad del Este, the Paraguayan border town is a dump, typical bordertown on the edge of utter chaos. Luckily we managed to get straight on a bus to Concepcion. Not so fortunate was that we thought this bus was gonna take 6 hours, but in ended up being 11 hours, and the bus broke down twice. That`s not cool when one of the spoons is being terribly hungover. Guess which one? We arrived Concepcion around midnight and quickly found a smooth hotel, Hotel Frances. Paraguay is dirt cheap, a double room at the best hotel in town equals 150000 guarani, which is about 140 kroners.

Second day in Concepcion today, and as much as this town is small n cozy it doesn´t offer much other than beer and food. We have yet to see any other tourist in Paraguay, and we reckon we are prolly the only ones here. Tomorrow we´re in for quite and adventure as we just bought tickets to a boat heading up the Rio Paraguay into The Pantanal to Isla Margaritha on the Brazilian border, near a town called Puerto Mouthino. The trip takes around 38 hours, and neither do we have a cabin or a hammock, so it´s basically gonna be us and tons of dirty and smelly Paraguyana on the floor. The price for the 38 hours ride? Only 80000 guaranis per person aka approx 90 kroners. It´s def not a hassle free trip, we have to stock up on food and water (and toilet paper) before we leave, and to make things even more easy there is no Paraguayan exit border at Isla Margaritha. Therefore we are now trying to get an exit stamp from the immigration authorities in Concepcion. Hopefully, there is at least a Brazilian entry post in Puerto Moutinho, but we´re def not sure.

The boat ride, long and painful as it is will prolly give us some more time to play C.untface. The score is currently 72-67 in favor of one of the spoons.

A lot of people claims Paraguay is boring, and tons of people, specially Argentinians and Brazilians were asking why the hell we wanted to go here, but that just trigged us even more. Paraguay has proven to be a perfect escape from all the other tourists, and we are sure the adventure up the Rio Paraguay tomorrow is gonna be a memory of a lifetime. Don´t underestimate Paraguay.
