The Iguazu Waterfalls were amazing! Mom says they are better than Niagara Falls. There are even wild guinea Pigs and jaguars and monkeys. The falls themselves are great! The sound of them are like a gazillion mothers saying “shhh…”. There is one group of waterfalls that are the best by far and they are like a hole in a lake. Seriously. Like a lake with a hole in it with waterfalls. Of course, it isn`t but I would recommend the Iguazu Falls to anyone! Especially if you want to get wet! It was raining most of the time but that didn`t stop me from taking pictures of the wild guinea pigs and waterfalls! I really can`t say much because it is just indescribable!

“ Jefe!! Phew..
Alannah when Jefe, the dog, would run at a motorcycle.
When our 20 hour bus ride was over we found our hostel and went to the Brazil, Paraguay and Argentinian border and also met a little friend along the way. We named him El Jefe or The Chief. He followed us there while carrying an empty carton of wine. He eventually buried it and then he started to try to pee on everything he could but after the first two times nothing came out. We also learned about his favourite hobby! You know how dogs are supposed to chase cars? Well, Jefe here chases and barks at motorcycles! The first time we saw him do it I thought he was a suicidal dog or something!!! Then when we saw him after supper with a brown wiener dog he followed us to our hostel. When he realized we were not coming back out his tail stopped wagging and went to sniff his friend`s….who we named El Empleado or The Employee. Who ,in short form, is Emple. I hope we see him again.
We were waiting in the Buenos Aires Bus Station when a drunk man who was maybe not to well, came up to us and started wapping in Spanish! Ofcourse we just let him do his thing and we tried to ignore him but it wasn`t easy when this man was drawing hearts and pulling his bottom eyelid down while swearing in Spanish at you! Eventually a nice shopkeeper went up to him and started talking and then when the man didn`t leave the shopkeeper called security. Security asked him to leave and then forcefully pushed him out. I am sure the security guys would take out their baton things in a sflash if the drunkard wanted to come back in! No doubt though, Buenos Aires is a great place and we were very sad to leave. Just walking around Buenos Aires you can learn!
Our last few hours were spent in San Telmo looking at street performers and markets.
Bye BA!! (Buenos Aires)

This would be one of many puppies in a pet store. I think puppies are super adorable! This one was very cute!
Yes, this is the same dog as in the picture below but this time he is not drooling. Well, he is kinda… He has a very cute face. Don’t you think?
Ok, so it’s a bit out of focus but I think you get it. Yes, that dog is drooling but I just had to take the picture!! He has such a cute face!
This is a dog that is part of a dog walking group. A chow-chow. How cute can a dog get?
These would be the more “trusted” dogs. Ofcourse there are still the dogs that need to be kept away from the rest, like a boxer nearby that needed to be tied to a tree. Notice the dog walker with his arm in a sling? I wonder how he got that? Hmmm.. maybe walking the dogs?
