Hey! So, first and most importantly, it´s my sister´s birthday today. Happy Birthday Jana! I miss you a bunch, and I´m looking forward to spending Christmas with you! I hope you have a wonderful quarter-century celebration in S. Korea.
Matt and I are in Rosario right now. We came in yesterday afternoon from Puerto de Iguazo where we saw the Iguazu Falls. WOW! It was huge!!! It made me think of one of those jungle paradise shots...like in the movie Up or something. It also made me think of Jurassic Park but without the dinosaurs. Unfortunately it was a rainy day, but the only day we could go if we were to stay on schedule for getting to BA (Buenos Aires). It really only rained on us nice and hard in the beginning when we went to see the top of the largest fall there called Devil´s Throat (Garganta de Diablo). It was incredibly huge and powerful...and just beautiful. For a moment it was surreal, like I was saying before, like a movie or something. We took pictures and video as much as we could while trying to keep our cameras dry. However, I apparently failed at that, because my camera began to malfunction right after leaving Devil´s Throat. I´m not sure where the problem is but I´m hoping to get it to a camera repair place in either BA or Lima for a quick fix (crossing fingers), and if it´s not a quick fix or we can´t find a place...then I´m not sure. I have a full warranty on the camera, but it´s through Best Buy, and Best Buy´s are hard to come by down here. I might just have to survive on a few disposables...or buy a cheap digital for the rest of our excursion. It´s a bit unfortunate being that I was looking forward to some big landscape shots of the mountains and especially Machu Picchu. Matt´s camera is acting up a bit too, but it´s still functioning. So, we´ll be able to capture a bit of Rosario while we´re here.
Well, Matt and I want to go check out some things here in Rosario while we´re here, so I´m going to get off. Happy birthday again Jana! I love you family and friends! God bless from Argentina.
