Great Start




Hola! It´s been a whirlwind for the past 4 days. 3 flights, 4 currencies, 5 airports and a taxi ride to boot and we are thus far having the time of our lives. Thanks AJ for letting everyone know about my stomach issues, but hell, the gods are shining on us and even that has cleared up. We are currently in the small town of Puerto Iguassu, on the Argentinian side of the world famous waterfalls. Trust me, Niagara ain´t got nothing on this baby. We decided on a whim to venture over to the Brazil side as well. Gotta love those unguarded borders. Spent a day in Brazil, and today spent the whole day at Iguassu National Park. Weather is fan frickin tastic. Probably about 29 degrees C. Nice to get away from that harsh Toronto winter. Thanks drew for shovelling! We will make sure we raise a toast to you while we pay 1 buck cad for a LITRE of beer, and 10 bucks for a solid steak dinner. First experience with a hostel is ok so far. Relatively clean, and i guess a few ants on the bed won´t kill us. I broke the sink but innocently proclaimed ignorance. Juan Carlos the hombre at reception quickly fixed it for us. tomorrow we are off to buenos aires - the Paris of South America so they say. Anita has the vision of doing alot of shopping, but i don´t see how we can fit anything more into that backpack of hers. Unless we toss the hairdryer, hair straightener, or at least 2 of the 3 different types of shampoo she brought.

Hope everyone is doing well!

wonger & aj
ps. we still have to figure out how to post pics, we have some pretty cool shots!
