Iguazú arrival

Just a few quick notes-
I wrote this to Dawn yesterday-  we arrived at the Salta airport in plenty of time to return the rental car in a leisurely fashion ( yes, he checked the car over to make sure there was still a spare tire and no additional dents or scrapes which would be a miracle because of their roads).  We got more pesos at the ATM and only had to wait in line behind 5 people.  We got our boarding passes, paid our luggage fee then attempted to go through security.  No man- it’s not your time!  What does that mean?  'You cannot go through security until the time posted on your boarding pass.  See here, 15:15'. No I really didn’t see but realized when we actually were able to go through that the gate area was very small and they only allow one flight at a time into the gate area.

The weather may not coop with the prime viewing of the falls but we will make the most of it.  Our room looks out to one of the fall areas and we can hear the roar from our patio.  We decided to sleep with the door open (screen in place) and could hear the waterfalls through the night.  This morning Jim started yelling 'get out of here!, git, git!'  There was a monkey trying to join us in our room.  I’m looking for to posting a follow up blog post of 'signs'.  If we would only read the sign on the window, we’d know to keep the door shut!  The front desk assured us all sign in the Park are in Spanish,  Portuguese and English.

Now it’s time to get in my hiking boots for a day in the National Park.  Maybe, just maybe we can arrange to step foot in Paraguay and Brazil.  You will see plenty of pictures on the next Post!

Have a fabulous day.
💜Barbara
