Foz do iguacu, Brazil

So we are officially in our last country wow does time ever fly! We hired a driver with another couple he picked us up took us through the border, we didn't even get out of the car he took our passports and got them stamped, what service:) Then he took us to the Brazil side of the falls and waited for a couple hours while we wandered around. He then took us to a restaurant buffet for lunch, by far some of the best beef and just food in general we have had on this trip who would have thought?! after he dropped us at our b&b and the other couple at the airport. It was the perfect way to do it. The Brazil side of the falls is cool because you see a complete over view of the Argentina side. Yesterday we flew from foz to Sao Paolo which is one of the top biggest cities in the world only 20 million people:) if we put Rio and Sao Paolo together just the 2 cities have as many people as there are in all of Canada! crazy! from there we took a 5hr bus ride to paraty which is where we are now. It's a good thing we were getting so good with our Spanish just in time to change to come to Brazil where we now have to learn some Portuguese! it helps knowing some Spanish cause things are spelled similar a lot of the time but they do not pronounce anything the same so it's very hard to understand what people say to you. But that's what traveling is all about, new adventures! That's our update for now:)
