Hey mom and dad as you know i'm currently backpacking through Latin America and let me just say its fantastic! One of the first destinations I arrived at was this beautiful place called Iguazu falls which is located between the borders of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. The waterfall system consists of 275 falls and its approximately 2.7 kilometers. There's a lot of activities you can do involving the falls including a helicopter ride, rappelling, jet boat rides, and jungle safaris. I only participated in the helicopter ride, but let me tell you it was incredible! Being able to see a birds eye view of one of the most beautiful waterfalls definatly made this adventure much more exiciting. I'll be sending another post card soon!
