iguazu falls and evita

instead of being lazy bums and sticking around buenos aires for the rest of our time in south america, we finally were motivated enough to get tickets to the falls. it was HOT, let me tell you. iguazu was as spectacular as people had told us. tons of water gushing everywhere, downwards.

at the hostel we stayed in, we shared a room with 2 kids from holland and another from canada whom we quickly became buds with. on our last day at puerto iguazu, she talked us into hopping the border to paraguay to shop for cheap electronics. why not? it turned out to be an exciting day with no mishaps (paraguay is supposedly known to be unsafe for the foreigners). she got what she went there for, an mp3 player, and we got a hammock and katherine got a cute sundress. we were even in brazil for a bizarre minute without getting stamped in or out. success!













we´re back in buenos aires now and are just hanging out till wednesday. doing some last minute shopping and touring. we just visited the recoleta cemetery where evita is buried. lots of other famous people are buried there too. but probably no one as fabulous as evita.
