Viewpoint 3 of Circuito Braziliero of Foz do Iguazu. The closest that a person can get to the falls from the Brazilian side.
Foz do Iguazu Panorama 3
Geoff and Tig on the Brazilian Iguazu side.

By now we were getting close enough where getting our camera soaked was starting to be a concern. Geoff and Tig strike a pose. 

The next three images are interesting in that they attempt to capture the inflow of water before they tumble into depths, thus creating a waterfall. At some places the calmness of the river can be very misleading; except for the sound, an innocent kayaker could easily not forsee the 1 mile drop offs until too late.

Almost touchable! By now the thunder of the falls is all around us. Water mist drenches us, relieving the mid-afternoon heat. We linger to take it all in 

Finally here
Return to The Map of Iguazu, proceed to the next viewpoint, or go to the next destination Ushuaia
