Lets just say WOW!!!! After a really long 20 hour bus ride we arrived to destination Puerta Iguazu, its in the jungle baby. Deciding to stay a bit out of town at a place we saw as we were coming in. It was very hostel eske but it had a great location and a sweet pool. Quickly unloading and jumping in the pool we plotted out our next day to the falls. We awoke early to get there when it opened and quickly walked to the first catwalk...my favorite part came at first glimpse...sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. Not to mention massive and spread out. I attached a video from the first place we stopped in awe.
The "catarates" are a series of sweeping waterfalls over a massive area. 
The river above fans out and calmly trickles its way toward an ultimate downward crash. The delicate balance of serenity and violence is all displayed and acted out within a few feet and over a few seconds. The most impressive area is the Garganta del Diablo (devils throat) see video below, it was mezmerizing! Em and I just stared at it for what seemed like an eternity.
We then took a boat over to an island and were mistified below, it was quite the baptism.
It was great to get back into nature, we treated our few days in the jungle like our summer (since we unfortunately missed it this year) We enjoyed our few days in the jungle, then we returned to the concrete jungle of BA. God has a pretty sweet Imagination!
