First of all let thank all the people who take the time to comment on my posts. It is nice to know people are really reading this stuff and I am not just talking to myself (which I have been known to do on numerous occasions).
Today was our day to explore the Igauzu Falls from the Brazilian side. First we went on a lovely walk with our tour guide, Virginia, and got some wonderful close up views of birds, bugs and of course the Iguazu Falls. After that we were driven to a local boat dock where we got a cruise that took us up to the falls and actually in the downfall of what is known as “The Three Musketeers”. We have had a ton of fun on this trip but I think this might have been my high point thus far.
Back at the hotel Patrice and I decided to relax and get a massage. The hotel offers a “couples massage” where you can be in the same room while you are getting your treatments. The Spa is lovely and after changing into robes we waited on cots for our masseurs to arrive. Patrice was greeted by Genevieve who we found out previously worked as a fashion model in Paris. Moments later I was welcomed by Hilda who is a descendant of German Nazi War Criminals. Patrice enjoyed her massage very much, I was introduced to body positions I did not know previously existed.
At night we had a wonderful Brazilian dinner and show at a restaurant outside the park. It was a variety show and I didn’t understand much of what was being said (except the few things spoken in English) but the variety acts were for the most part quite enjoyable. A bit loud, but enjoyable.
Tomorrow we leave for Rio.
Ciao, Ciao,
Roberto
