Waterfalls Seen from Brazil

What a tropical night it was, with the temperature barely dropping at all! Yesterday, we moved from a room with air conditioning to one with just a fan, making it tough to cool down inside. This morning, we switched back to a room with AC, and it wasn't just because of the heat; we also found a gigantic cockroach in the bathroom with huge antennae just sitting there staring at us. The weather forecast for the past few days had said there was an 80% chance of thunderstorms, storms, and rain. Instead, we've had brilliant sunshine every day to enjoy the waterfalls, so it’s been perfect. Today, we took a taxi to Brazil. It only cost 25 pesos for one way, which saved us from taking the local bus or going on an organized tour. The waterfall on the Brazilian side is more accessible since you get a better overall view from a distance. However, the majority of the waterfall is on the Argentine side, where there are many little paths leading right up to it, so you really feel like you’re right in the middle of it all. Both sides share the common feature of extremely high humidity, so you sweat a ton. That's why it's so refreshing to get cooled off by the mist from the waterfall, which sprays water from quite a distance. When we were ready to head back to Argentina, we couldn’t find our taxi, so we hopped on the local bus instead. That was easy too. There wasn’t much difference in price between the bus and the taxi. We had to change buses twice, with each leg costing 6 pesos per person. The taxi ride would have cost 25 pesos in total. Originally, the taxi fare was 40 pesos, but we managed to haggle it down, so it was pretty much a toss-up whether to take a taxi or the bus. Once again, we had some really good grilled food for dinner... and of course, red wine. It only cost 50 pesos!
