Round the world in 90 days!

The Iguazu falls (Brazil)

After all the fun times in Rio, we were due for a bit more nature-loving. Unfortunately Dom and Michelle were unable to join us so it was back down to 5 . . .

We hired a driver and spent a day going to see the big dam (yawn), the Brazillian side of the Iguazu Falls and the bird park.

After our dam trip which made me feel like I was doing some lame school excursion, we were off to see the falls.

The bird park was possibly the most facinating part of the excursion. There was an unbelievable variety of birds and heaps of macaws, tucans, butterflies (I know they aren´t birds), parrots, etc, etc, etc

Below is a series of photos where Julius has his button eaten off by a macaw.
