Iguazu Falls


Iguazu Park is located at the point where Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay meet.  It's a Unesco World Heritage Site.  More than 275 waterfalls are located in the jungle at the confluence of the Rio Parana and the Rio Iguazu.  Here are just a few photos from my two-and-a-half day stay there last June.  The rivers were particularly muddy, but the weather was wonderful, in the 70's and no rain!  Unusual, they said.
