Argentina!

Out with the old and in with the new! Meaning hello Argentina! Iguazu falls can be seen from both the Brazil side and Argentina side. The Brazil side gives you a great panoramic view of all the waterfalls, while the Argentina side gets you really close to the action. The hostel on the Argentina side was quite nice, a group of 10 of us were hanging out at the hostel, playing guitar, lying in hammocks, while one English guy named Scott offered to cook us all his famous meatballs on a budget. The next morning a few of us went to the falls, and ended it off doing a speed boat tour that drives you right underneath one of the waterfalls. It as absolutely incredible to experience. 3 of us jumped on a bus to Buenos Aires that night, which is a 19 hour bus ride. The bus had wide seats that recline to become almost flat. They have this amazing leg rest invention that's best described as a flutter board thing that attaches to the seat for your legs to rest on. They give you a pollow, blankets, a beef and potato dinner, your own bottle of wine (which I surprisingly enjoyed) and they play movies. It's the best bus ride I've ever been on by FAR! Makes greyhound look like torture... Anyways still discovering Buenos Aires, the vibe of the city is really cool!
