Iguassu Falls (part 2 of 2) - Brazil

Across the border, hostel located, bus to National Park jumped on.
The Brazilian side was very different. No crowds of slow-moving tourists, really nice buses which drop you off at various attractions, and full fancy souvenier shops.

The 1st view was of the Argentine side, but further away, so really panoramic. Less walking on the Brazilian side, and the view of the devils throat (although more than beautiful) was a little less "breathtaking" but hilariously pacifier-taking. A little girl dropped her dummy down, yeah that amused me. Less coaties too.


We sort of felt like fitting another attraction in, so we ventured over to the Parques des Aves (bird park). We saw marmosets, flamingoes, Macaws, snakes eating bunnies whole (?!?!?!!) not to mention half a dozen jerk toucans. One jerk toucan bit me on the arm.


The bird park was awesome! Such a rad welcome to Brazil.
What could possibly go wrong on a day with waterfalls, rainbows & toucans? You may ask. I nailed myself on the way home from dinner. Walking, walking, walking, ON THE GROUND! I've really cripppled my leg, and my knee is still bleeding. What a clumsy guy.
