On the way to Humahuaca
I walked about 35 km and to really enjoy the landscape around me

Water coming down the river
Highest water levels in Iguazu for 28 years.

Oops, a fall
a lot of rain up the river in Brazil

Dos Hermanos falls
These are some of the smaller ones but we couldn't get close to the bigger ones due to the high water levels.

A natural shower
I got totally soaked within a second, it was a lot of fun running around there though.

Breathtaking views
No more waterfalls for me until Victoria Falls in 2012

Imagine the noise
Normally you have a bunch of separate falls here, but today it was just one big one.
