Iguazu Falls - the Brazilian Side

I had some problems checking in at the airport today but I made it. I couldn´t figure out which line to go to and asked someone but they didn´t know English well. Somehow they checked me in though but without my baggage so I carried it on the plane. Before we took off, they paged someone on the plane. I kept on thinking that it sounds like they are paging me if you tried to pronounce my name in Portuguese .... Ersh Archy was what it sounded like. I guess they just wanted to make sure I was on the plane but I don´t understand why they didn´t just check to see where I was sitting.

In Iguazo, I met up with this guy Robson at the bus station and we headed to the Falls together. He´s from Rio and was able to get us a cab when the bus didn´t show up. The Falls were fun but wet. More photos later.

I also met some girls that just graduated from Michigan at the Falls. The one girl was wearing a Michigan sweatshirt. I walked up to them and asked them if they went to Michigan. They said yes but then gave me the most awkward look ever (I'm kinda used to that so I wasn't phased.) It turns out the other girl was a BBA. Small world.
