Well, I finally arrived in the town of Puerto Iguazu! After traveling all last night and all morning by bus, I made it here to the border between Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. I don't know if I'll be able to get over into Brazil to see their side of the falls, because sometimes you need a visa, but I will definitely see the Argentinian side plenty. I found out why the buses were all full. It's because today is the Argentinian Interdependence Day, and everyone is traveling for their three day weekend. However, I made it into a nice hostel, and it's a chill place to be. I just spent this afternoon walking a little around town by the river, saw some new birds, and talked to some people on Skype. Tomorrow I plan on doing a lot of hiking, and hopefully see some real wildlife! It should be a good day, and I hope it won't be rainy like today. Today is also the first time that I've worn shorts in a couple months, and it's been very nice. I'm excited to be here, and I'll be in town for at least the next four days, plenty of time to rest and explore!
New birds for today:
Purple-throated Euphonia, White-lined Tanager, Red-rumped Cacique, Chestnut-vented Conebill, Red-crowned Ant-Tanager, Greenish Tyrannulet, Double-collared Seedeater
