we are hanging out here at a campsite which is not normal for us usually we're just staying
in places for free but as we make our way into the jungle it's been really hard to find
places that are free jungle is so dense no one really just makes a road into the jungle
just for like no reason because it's very hard to maintain it gets overgrown very fast
I've seen on eye Overlander people calling this Red Dirt the red mud of death because
if you get stuck in it it's just really hard to get unstuck so I think it's beautiful I
was so excited the first time I started seeing the Red Dirt we are going to be less relaxed
than we have been the last couple of months because of us having a little bit of a time
constraint as we have to be back in Uruguay before the pet paperwork expires so we have
two months traveling around Bolivia travel around Brazil and then into Uruguay but we're
having a beautiful day here I'm sitting outside working something that has been hanging out
with me outside and she's been loving that of course with a keen show comes a whole bunch
of bones that she finds on the ground we are heading to the legendary Iguazu Falls iguasu
river is formed near korichiba Brazil by headstreams and floods West where it falls over these
huge Cliffs and meets with the padana river which is the natural border for these three
countries Iguazu Falls can be seen from both Brazil and Argentina we're going to the Argentina
side first then over to Brazil in a couple days yeah
waterfalls in the world I think it's bigger than Niagara Falls even so I've heard of this
long time ago pretty excited to check it out in real life so last night it rained all lot
because of that we're hoping that there are less people here today supposed to be a nice
day after in the afternoon but right now it's still a little cloudy alrighty so we're coming
into the parking lot and look at all of these bands we have to park in the combi parking
lot we've got some Brita and Graham set up in there so we are heading to the falls are
you excited I'm really excited and the sun just came out got to pay for the ticket and
the parking at the ticket office
it's 5 500 pesos so that's 13.75 U.S whoa scare me yeah I don't want you to come close
to me senor we are right here starting off on the lower circuit which is you can already
hear a water hall right over there can't see anything over there I think the terrain just
becomes a cliff but we're going to start by going as far away from it and walking towards
it here yeah the lower circuit and then there's an upper one but we'll be up above the Falls
I guess it's a two kilometer long waterfall that's great gosh and then we can take a train
that's included in the ticket and that goes like way above the waterfall way over there
they've already seen some Wildlife we saw the kawati in the beginning and they're super
friendly so they come right up to you but a little sad that we saw someone feeding them
you shouldn't feed them there's signs everywhere that says that they get aggressive whenever
you feed them so don't feed the house don't put kids on your shoulders wow remember a
guy died here what yeah a guy died here pretty recently when the water was really high but
I think it was on the Brazil side and I think what happened was he had climbed the guardrail
to take a selfie and he fell off so it wasn't like it's unsafe here yeah be careful on these
steps because the humidity they're a little bit slippery
it's just as epic as I thought it would be and this is just a little teeny piece wardrobe
change yeah yeah look at that she came prepared just don't fall in babe
wow just so many waterfalls I love it now look at this it just keeps on going yeah this
is epic
[Music]
[Music] so that's the lower circuit here I think that's got to be the best view of the
falls because we're down below it see all the water and I think everything else we're
gonna gonna be above the Falls because that this way yeah it goes that way huh I don't
know maybe there's more to it oh there's a whole nother waterfall over in the corner
here it's the other one yeah
[Music]
a little lost really busy [Music]
disability [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] wow
is such an amazing walk huh yeah it's really popular but yeah there's a lot a lot of people
but I think that the inferior circuit was a little bit better yeah
and then also not a lot of people went that way up here it's way more popular it's pretty
amazing that this whole huge lake is going over the waterfalls over two kilometers of
different Falls it's reminds me Machu Picchu because it's just this natural wonder super
beautiful but also we haven't seen this many people since Machu Picchu it's really really
beautiful I think I feel like it's also like a sacred place we're walking through the jungle
a bit we finish the superior wow the top Trail not as good view as the lower and way more
people yeah um but it's really interesting to see that water rushing over see the lake
River slash huge body of water up above but I would say if you wanted to spend all day
here I'm at the inferior the lower Trail than the top upper trail that would be the spot
to hang out and have your mate just this enormous wet area up above the Falls it's really impressive
yeah it's a beautiful place really to get to la garganta del Diablo or the demos throat
we are going to take a free train we still need to get a ticket at the stand for the
next time slot but it's free and it beats waiting in line got another nice above the
river walkway
[Applause] then you want to go for a swim [Music] almost there whoa

thank you [Music] foreign

place just walking around you know asking people are there postcards she said no no
we don't have postcards it smelled so good in there exclusive teas here by Masters stuff
like that I looked down and there's an alpha [ __ ] made from yerba mate we bought it
she was like I give out free postcards with every purchase so we got some postcards we're
going to try the urban Mountain
wow I don't even know how to describe it at all and alfajores separately are classically
Argentinian things so when you combine them what is it like it was pretty good really
I think one of the most amazing waterfalls I've ever seen waterfalls are such like a
jungle thing like we haven't even seen a waterfall in a really long time so it's just really
cool to be introduced back into the jungle and then also seeing such an incredible waterfall
right off the bat the largest waterfall system in the world the number of people would say
sail the busiest by any means this is pretty sick the lower circuit still I think was the
was the best walk because it had less people I don't know if they suggest going to certain
things to different people but there was really like not that many people on the lower circuit
whereas on every other circuit there were so many people that we were constantly dipping
and dodging it was very accessible as well which is really nice there's so there's handicap
ramps there's things like that where it's easy for anyone to be able to get around but
we did walk pretty far today six miles we walked six miles we were here for four hours
oh it's okay underneath
to be winding down our time in Argentina like we're not going to be having to do all this
Western Union stuff anymore to get money and you know the people are so friendly here we're
gonna miss that and Argentina what a country it is got a lot going on it's sad to be leaving
so excited to finally go to a new country sometimes like in Central America you'd be
like new country new country new country and I'm really stuck to be going to another country
next country we'll be heading to is Brazil it has been such a long time since either
of us have been in a country that we don't speak the language so that'll be really interesting
wow I'm a little nervous about that it's been really nice knowing Spanish for the Pan-American
today we're going to be going to be across the board s checking out this
City we found kind of a little off the Beaten Track little attraction here apparently this
you know is second growth course they extensively logged this area but here they've maintained
some of the original trees they're dead they're on the ground but you can see just how enormous
this Forest used to be so I'm kind of stoked let's check it out [Music]
thank you [Music] so it's built like a trap like these little traps they used to have
[Music]
but the guide also told us that they have yerbamate ice cream over here so after the
alpha [ __ ] we should probably try that
because it got the energy of it
I feel like I'm about to drop this
and see it in your eyes
she's pretty bomb hot water for the mate dispenser pretty sweet but whatever we saw a big dream
we got some Yerba matcha ice cream here at least how far did we walk Emily
I was walking around so tired we just decided to order a pizza we were driving by a pizza
place so went in and got it to go she said she's gonna come knock on the van with it
oh what do we got
that looks good let's put some sugar flakes watch out cause these olives have pets and
as I'm so dead I'm gonna devour this and then we'll get to the Border we are going to get
ready for tomorrow's border copies YouTube Portuguese lessons
