How to get wet at Iguazu Falls

 Iguazu Falls is a place you can get wet, just walk far enough along many of the walkways and the spray will get you.  You may want to try out one of the boat trips as below which get close to the falls.

Some of us less hardy folks seeing the coming storm below retired to the Melia Hotel bar and sipped Mojitos or similar watching while, we presumed, others got wet.
However, we got our comeuppance as the only way out of the Argentinian side of the park is by the train.  So we had to walk back to the station and queue with all the other wet people.  When it rains there it sure does rain!
You can make your own mind up about the political correctness
 of the white ponchos.

More Wildlife around the Falls - Don't ask about Species.

 The spider was difficult to get details.
 High up and far away - the best I could do.



The Iguazu River presenting a calm face before the falls.


Then all hell breaks loose.

Coati - cute No!!!!!


Coatis are a member of the Racoon family.  They look cute but beware.  They have become habituated because of the presence of food, human food.  They have large teeth and there are quite graphic pictures of injuries dotted around the Argentinian side of the Falls.



More from Iguazu Falls

The Falls are so big it is impossible to get them in one shot.
 Egret at the Falls




Not all shots were possible!!!

Everybody is trying to get a classic view with no-one in it!
Maybe something like this one.
This one is more a portent of things to come but more of that later.
