this morning, I was gonna go to see the Iguazu´s waterfalls, which are one of the biggest in the world. So I got up at 6:30, looked out of the window to check the weather conditions and it is raining tigers and terriers rather than cats n dogs. I decided to take a day off and just keep on sleeping, since I couldnt really sleep that night anyway for 6 mosquitos were bugging me allnight through. At 8:30 the lady from the reception runs into my room and is screaming "el agua viene, el agua viene!" which means the water is coming. I was half asleep still and didnt really react to her screaming. Just like in the old days when mom comes into your room and you are still hang over and she´s giving you tasks that would keep you busy all day, but the words just wont be transmitted from the ears to your brain :) Anyway, so she starts putting my stuff frm the ground onto the bunk beds, and then I see it. The crack under the door gives way for the water that is coming from outside, and then even presses the door open. Within seconds the floor is flooded with a small water film, and I finally wake up. In a wild hurry we grab all my stuff and put in on the beds. Than we lift the lower matresses on the upper bunk, and I grab all my stuff and bring it to another dorm room, which is higher than street level and therefore dry. Of course, I still had time to make a video. I am trying to upload it soon.
So that was my first Cataratas de Iguazu, and even without entrance fee :)
