Flying visit to Iguazú

This weekend just gone I went with 3 colleagues to Iguazú Falls on the Brazil/Argentina border, to the East of Paraguay. It was great fun and the weather was beautiful. The rivers were high so there was a lot of water coming over the falls and it was awe-inspiring to experience all that stunning scenery. We saw some beautiful butterflies, interesting birds and even a group of monkeys who were navigating the trees above our heads.

Have a look at the monkeys:



And some of my better photos:

  3. wonderful, overwhelming, stunning, awesome, the list goes on forever... not so sure about "romantic" though - maybe just not my idea of romance! I would say there's too much walking and too many tourists for it to be truly romantic!
