HOT DAY!!!

Yesterday was spent walking the large National Park on the border with Brazil--Iguazu National Park--where their famous waterfalls rival Niagra ( at least that is their belief). They are spectacular, and extend over a greater lateral distance but I don´´t think they are any grander in overall scale than Niagra. Even the natives were complaining about the heat. Every tourist, walking the trails through what amounted to, the edge of a rainforest, was soaking wet with sweat---as we were. Just had to tell yourself what a good time you were having--Cathy said she had NEVER been that hot before--temp was in the high 90s with humidity about the same. The spray from the waterfalls was a wecome relief.
We saw all we wanted in a day and a half, and cut our visit one day short and flew back to BA.

Today, the 10th, and we arrived back about 2pm and just after checking into our room, we have a torrential downpour here----sooo---time for a beer and a little snack, and later a meal about 8pm.
