Last weeks of February


























The last weeks of February kicked off very nice due to 4 day weekend due to federal holidays. So Sarah, Aubry and I went to Gualeguaychu for Carneval. The only problem was we went on the wrong day. The parade was Saturday and Monday and we arrived there on Sunday. A possibility would have been to stay till Monday but we had already bought out tickets back to BsAs so we just pulled an all night er and went home Monday morning. We thought since the website said mega fiesta that it was the parade as a big party. We still had fun we went to the beach and ate good food. The mega fiesta was fun as well. It was the selection of the king and the queen of the parade. Afterwards there was several tents that was playing different music to party in. The following week I went to Igauzú Falls omg.... The first day we went and saw the river that the falls flows into. Standing on the Argentina side we could see the Brazil and Paraguay sides of the falls. We went back to the hotel and I met two more amazing friends Ron and Steve we hung out much of the excursions days and had a blast. Day two we went to the Igauzú forest and the falls. I saw different animals and some exotic butterflies and birds. After that we finally saw the falls and let me tell you they are amazing. We had the opportunity to ride a speed boat up to the falls which was exhaling. It felt like I was on top of the world. Ron and I had a conversation about our journey here how I work two jobs a first shift and a third shift job plus going to school full time just to make it and he worked two jobs and went to school as well. Also how most of our friends never been out the country and we were doing something different. To quote a quote from Lil Wayne " I feel big not big in the sense of weight not gaining weight or colossal " to ellaborate it means I feel big like I made it I am on top. Which is how we felt being there. On the final day we went to the Missones Jesuítico Guaraníes which was amazing seeing how the people lived. They provided for us lunch and dinner which was good. They made the best empanadas and fried tortilla shells with sugar. I drunk cold matte for the first time which was good. Here above are a few pictures I took you can see the rest on my Facebook page.
