Many of you may recall that Iguassu Falls is the area where Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina meet and is where the famous movie "The Mission" was filmed. Iguassu is one of the most magnificent and majestic places on earth and our delegates have been in awe of its beauty. The water levels are very high due to much recent rain so the sights are especially dramatic. On our first day at Iguassu, our delegation spent the morning hiking all along the Brazil side of the falls. It was a perfect weather day and we took our time all along the trails observing plants, animals (coatis are our favorite!) and the waterfalls.
