More Iguazu and Return to BA

Monday, 2/4

82 degrees.

After breakfast in Iguazu Falls, we ventured again to take a train ride to the impressive Garganta del Diablo (Devil's Throat) one of the Wonders of the Natural World where the Iguazu River crashes down almost 80 meters forming many rainbows. Then we hiked the Lower Circuit where we saw a different view of the magnificent Falls. In the afternoon we flew back to Buenos Aires and checked into a boutique hotel- the Melia Recoleta. Our hotel was the former home of Eva Peron and had been a brothel at one time. Every room exuded the personality of the previous inhabitants including swooning couches and plush beds. We had a lovely dinner at a local cafe with much wine and conversation. We were happy to have Carolyn Vick along to interpret for us.
