Foz Do Iguacu to Puerto Iguazu

Here we checked our bags into left luggage, and went to see the water falls. It was an amazing view and made us look forward to seeing the falls up close on the Argentine side.


We were pretty smelly by now and needed to cross the border and get to our hostel, not least for the shower!

The border crossing consisted of a mini bus ride out of Foz do Iguacu from a crumbling bus stop simply labelled 'Argentina'. This took us to the Brazilian border, where we got off, eventually found the right office to get our passports stamped, and then waited for a second bus (effectively in nomans land) to take us the Argentine border. Where we got off, got our passports stamped again, got back on again (mad scramble with the locals, as this bus waits for no one...) and made it to Puerto Iguazu. We really needed a shower now!
