In Puerto Iguazu

Whatever sleep we got last night was WAY better than the sleep we got the night before on the bus, but we still had a little trouble sleeping. During the night here in Puerto Iguazu, very heavy rains fell most of the night, and there were also strong thunderstorms. Our hotel has tin roofs, so of course the sound of the rain was magnified. All in all, though, it was nice hearing the rain, knowing we were safe in our room. The next day was overcast and drizzly so we felt that it would not be a good day to go to the falls. So, we pretty much just took it easy around here. We went to the Brazilian Consulate and got our visas and did quite a bit of walking around the town. Guillermo and I also took a taxi out to an overlook named Hito, from where you can see the the confluence of the Parana and Iguazu Rivers, and at the same time see Brazil across the Iguazu River, and Paraguay across the Parana River. We thought that was very interesting to be able to see three different countries at once!!
I haven't been in South America even a week, and already I'm a little tired of the food here. So, you can imagine how Guillermo and Fernando feel!!! Pretty much, everywhere you go, it's some kind of beef or chicken with fries or potatoes. There isn't much variety, although of course they do have pizza and some pastas but it usually isn't that good. Fruits and vegetables are in short supply around here!!!
Tomorrow we are thinking the weather will be better for seeing Iguazu Falls, so that is our plan for tomorrow!
