J&J Go South 2023 - Day 9 - We Have the Meats

After such a long day yesterday going to the Iguazu Falls, we made sure to turn the alarms off and sleep in. We didn’t sleep that late but lay in bed, surfed our phones, and let the morning come to us. Today marks the last day in Buenos Aires and the last day of our vacation.

J&J Go South 2023 - Day 8 - Chasing Waterfalls

When we had originally planned our South America trip in 2020, Jenn made a massive point that she wanted to visit the Iguazu Falls. The falls border Brazil and Argentina and are considered one of the natural wonders of the world. When we decided to do South America in 2023 we weren’t sure where to put it in our itinerary. After a lot of research, we decided to do a day trip to the falls from Buenos Aires. Luxor and Kuala Lumpur were the only two other up-and-back day trips we’ve done in the past. To get it all in we woke up a little after 4 AM and were off to Ezeiza International Airport to catch our two-hour flight to the falls.

Not every day of traveling is perfect and our start to day six of this trip wasn’t what I’d call “smooth.” We woke up fine and finished packing up and went to check out and meet our driver downstairs. After ten minutes of discussing our bill with the front desk (a few things looked off), we finally checked out and joined our driver to take us to the Rio airport.
