It is weekend time again! Eight team members of Los Buenos joined the tour to the Iguazú waterfall, starting on Saturday morning, coming back on Sunday late evening.

Saturday: After arriving, we checked in to the hotel - as we stayed only one night, we decided to book the Sheraton. This is the only hotel inside the National Park. Hence, all activities within the park can be reached by walking there.
First, we booked a boat tour. By speed boat, they take you to the falls from the lower part of the river. After boarding, the first part shows only the river, but suddenly, the falls got into our view. That was the time for the pictures before putting the camera to the water proof sacks that were provided. After that, the boat went right into the area where the falling water splashes into the river. Shower time!!! With the hot temperature outside and the humidity, this even was a refreshment that was very welcome.
After the boat ride, we took the small train that brings tourists to the Devil's Throat, the part of the falls where you can't get to from below by boat. They constructed trails like bridges on which you can walk close to the rim and take photos.
Our day ended with a pleasant team dinner, full of conversations about the falls and much more. Before falling asleep, we had a look at the stars of the Southern hemisphere.
Sunday: Let me keep this short: Two more hikes with great views and lots and lots of photos today.
Photos will follow in a separate posting tomorrow! For now, we are cooling down with a beer and a snack before returning to Buenos Aires.
