Big water – Iguazu falls

Большая вода - водопады Игуасу

Never liked the waterfalls. Or rather not felt a wild delight at their appearance. But everything happens for the first time, especially in those places where everything is special – the mountains, the sky, even the air is different. To the Iguazu falls we got out spontaneously, but that impression only became brighter. Sitting quietly in Torres del Paine, and here in my head hit a great idea – and not to see whether one of the most famous attractions of Argentina? We quickly Packed up and moved from Chile back to Argentina, spent a night in El Calafate and the following day flew to Buenos Aires.

2. I had to change the tickets that were two days later. Paid 100 pesos for a ticket, just nothing. To Puerto Iguazu – the town from which all roads lead to the falls – we decided to take the bus. Yes, for a long time, 18 hours. But cheaper in two times than on the plane. Get something around 100 bucks for a one way ticket for one. But what an adventure! As we have heard and read about these buses, with a different type of comfort. On the ground floor was some type of business class, and economy. There and settled we, along with a bunch of loud locals. Went to lunch, came up to dinner (!) almost like the plane, and tried to sleep.

3. But it was hard. But not because it was uncomfortable. Just spent the night pounding rain, a real tropical storm. Such a stream watered the road in front of us! And flashes of lightning that shed light on the night… the Seats on the bus recline almost to a lying position. though I was not lucky as always. my broken chair and tried to get me back…

5. Quickly checked into the hotel and went on one of the buses to the waterfalls. Buses run every half hour, cost 100 pesos both ways. At the entrance to the Park you have to pay denyuzhku, I do not remember how much, $ 25 I think. A lot of people, children, tourists with cameras, and the ubiquitous Chinese. All naturally equipped with, and very very organized along specific points of the trail, such as the Perito Moreno

7. And here is the first observation point. The weather did not let us down – over the waterfall it was raining and thundering. I even managed to get a tripod, pushing away all fans of the selfie. Oh, how I hated them in those moments! Especially the couple that an awful lot of time spent filming themselves on the background of a waterfall…

8. In the bushes were grazed here these freaks in the Park as local pests. Everywhere hung signs, so that they were not and are not fed, because the bites are sooo painful and bloody. but this charming little creature!

10. Of course there is a legend about the origin of waterfalls. And Yes, of course – because of unrequited love )
Indian boy kidnapped his beloved, swam to her boat down the river Iguazu. The gods refused and decided to stop lovers. They opened up before them gorge where awash in the steady flow of the river. Once in the whirlpool, the girl turned into one of the stones that are transforming the river into a waterfall, and the boy turned into one of the trees that surround the river and the waterfall that now always looks at his beloved.

14. But the coolest from the Argentinian side of the falls is Devil’s Throat. It is open a width of 150 and a length of 700 meters. The most impressive part of Iguazu. To reach them, you need to take the train, and ride a little. He is of course free

15. What’s cool! Something rumbling ,billowing white clouds in the air! And we were very well – there was a wind, splashes rose up, and on them played the rainbow. The wind changed its broke off, cut in half, or newly connected. The low sun shone well on this beauty..

17. One of my favorite photo – the water was very relief. Sorry, we were kicked out in 5 hours – Park closes at 6 hours and we had to catch the last train. Came uncle-the security men and asked everyone to exit ( the Park has the option, on a moonlight night to watch the lunar rainbow. About the time work need to know in advance.
