The experience

We rolled out of Puerto Iguazú just after sunrise. I was still half-awake, clutching my coffee in the van as we bumped along. Our guide, Martín, started pointing out birds I’d never have noticed (one had this neon blue patch on its head) and told us how the falls split Argentina and Brazil. The air smelled like wet earth even before we reached the park gates. I remember thinking it was already humid, but nobody seemed to mind. Everyone was too busy craning their necks for that first glimpse of water.

The eco-train ride felt almost like a theme park at first, but then you step off and there’s this wall of sound from Iguazu Falls that just swallows up everything else. We walked the upper circuit first. Spray in the air made my arms sticky. At one point Martín stopped us to watch a family of coatis rummaging around for snacks (don’t feed them, he warned). I tried to take a photo but it didn’t really work. You can’t hear the roar or feel the little drops landing on your face through a screen.

Some folks peeled off for the Macuco trail: 3km through thick jungle if you want to spot monkeys (I stuck to the main paths because my shoes were already soaked). There are ramps everywhere so even people in wheelchairs or with strollers could get close to the edge. Lunch was whatever we packed ourselves. I ate mine sitting on a bench watching butterflies land on someone’s backpack. On the way back Martín quizzed us on plant names and laughed when I mixed up yerba mate with some other leaf: still not sure what it was. The whole day felt both loud and quiet at once, if that makes sense.
