We saved the best for last.
Iguazu Falls was absolutely spectacular. It's known as the 8th wonder of the world, and rightfully so. It makes Niagara Falls look like a leaky faucet. We took a boat ride (like Maiden of the Mist) right into the falls, and got drenched. We also had lunch with coaties (co-aht-ees) which are adorable little creatures that are kind of a cross between a racoon and a possum that are all over the park, and will literally crawl onto your table and steal your food.
Then, after a delightful siesta we had dinner at was probably the most interesting restaurant we've ever eaten at. The chef is from Italy and uses molecular infusion in his cooking so every dish is a new experience. Ste p H had an eggplant appetizer with parmesan flavored ice cream dressing. It was amazing. She also had a chocolate torte thing with chocolate filling covered in chocolate (that's what they called it--a chocolate torte thing)
Tomorrow we have a relaxing day in Iguazu before heading back to Buenos Aires, then a stopover in Brazil, then back to sunny Monrovia. Thanks for following our trip, and it's now time for another siesta and some chocolate things.
