Beautiful Iguazú


We took our first school trip a little over a week ago to Northeast Argentina. Here the jungle dominates the landscape with its lush foilage and muddy rivers. The highlight of the trip was Iguazú Falls, a mesmerizing set of cataracts that is only rivaled by Victoria Falls in Africa.

If you ever want to go somewhere that will take your breath away, look no further.



The park wouldn't let us go swimming. Too bad.

This lizard was about the size of a shoebox.

The park's many waterfalls made it perfect for rainbows.

This is the group of ACA students from Walla Walla University. There's a few missing.

This is the biggest waterfall in Iguazú, La Garganta del Diablo. My camera could only get a third of it.

¡Vive Argentina!

Nice Brendan!

It's good to see the blog updated once more. Hope things are going well. How's the Spanish coming?

Life is good on this end. This is my third day in Egypt and our first day operating on patients. Both of them are alive so far, which is wonderful. The surgeons are doing without quite a bit of stuff, so they're doing a great job improvising.

I'm really tired of dragging around my video camera but only two more weeks to go!

Love you little bro! You're doing great! Keep up the good work.

Love,
Maranatha
