perfect night

Forgot to mention that my last night at the Pantanal and it was like a warm summer eve....most were, the sky full of stars and the milky way very clear and best of all.....not a bug in the sky!  Weird....not even under the lights....not any type of bug.....and I did not get one bite....that was a miracle ;0)
Arrived at Iguacu Falls this afternoon....a 26 hr trip....25 by bus, 30 minutes by truck coming out of the Pantanal and another 30 minutes by taxi.  Here is the goofy thing though....we had to drive north 5 hrs to Campo Grande to buy our bus tickets to the falls only to turn back around the way we came and continue south!  Brazil has not quite figured out online status yet.  They are crazy....dont stop at stop (para) signs and not always at red lights either, especially at night...YIKES.  The Brazilians love their salt...more so up by the Arguyia river....just pour the salt onto their hand like when doing shots of tequilla...but no tequilla.  The food is not as salty down south.  They always have beans and rice with lunch and dinner and often like to have potatoes with that as well.  They are a friendly bunch though and the country is beautiful. Weather much cooler down south.  Most likely will go to Argentina tomorrow!!  To check out the falls on that side and then will check it out on the Brazil side the next day if all goes as planned....hot dog!  Had a nice time with the French family I rode on the bus with along with some young English men....luckily one speaks Portuguesse.  This family, 2 young girls....6 and 10? who are the sweetest and their mom and dad are on their last month of a year long trek around the world...incredible.  It is very nice here at the Paudimar Hostel....the manager...Vitor....pronounced Victor.....he vas my boyfriend....a line from Young Frankenstein....calls me Janet Jackson....greeted me when I got out of the taxi and asked what happened to my dark skin.  Told him had the same problem as my bro did but still got the moves....lol   so friendly and helpful.  Will fly back to Brasilia on Monday....gives me an extra day to make it back on time before I leave on the 1st to head back home.
