Tomorrow I leave for another journey. Easter time provides a great opportunity for travelling, and the fact that my friend Chris needs to renew his visa provides the motivation.
So we leave at 6am for Posadas, Missiones (1), then hitchhike to Obera (2), a smaller town only one hour away where we will meet up with the Mobile Mission School team that are working there. This is the same group of people that I was with during my time in Ciudad del Este. They have moved back into Argentina now.
From here we continue North to Puerto Iguazu (3) to check out the famous waterfalls on the Argentine side, then stop around at the Brazilian side in Foz de Igua?for a general impression of the whole place. From here we will don a helmet and brave the dangers of a motorbike taxi over the crowded bridge into Ciudad del Este (4) for a look around and to pick up some purchases for some friends.
After this, Chris continues on his journey through Paraguay, while I return to Corrientes to continue with my work here. It should be a fun time.
Just in case anyone does not know where some of these places are, I have provided a map below with arrows to indicate where we are going. Have a great day, Rob.
NOTE: Puerto Iguazu, Foz Igua?and Ciudad del Este are all in the same area, and you can see the other two from each place. Obera is only a short distance north of Posadas. Argentina is Green, Brazil is Orange, and Paraguay is Yellow. This is the North Eastern part of Argentina.
