Iguacu Falls



The last two days at Iguacu falls have been very exciting! On Monday Miss bevan and I visited the enormous waterfall. We had to cross the border into Argentina (Can you find it on a map?). Most people there spoke Spanish, the national language of Argentina.




We took a speed boat along the river and it took us underneath the falls so that we got soaking wet!

We saw lots of wildlife, including butterflies, spiders and Coachis.


This photo shows the "devil´s throat", the top of the falls. The noise of the water was very loud and we got very wet from the spray. the water was incredibly powerful. Do you know the names of any other famous waterfalls in the world?

  2. Hi Chloe,

    I am so sorry that I have only just seen your comment!

    I was lots of fun going under the waterfal and we got very wet. The water feels heavy when it is falling hard onto your head!

    I hope you are enjoying school at the moment and working hard.
