Under the Falls

They took us for a spin up close & then under the falls. They put us under a couple of times before heading around to where we boarded the boat then down river to the pick up point.
We had to get a wriggle on after that. We had to get on a bus that evening and we had to get back across the border, shower & change, and get to the bus port. We had enough time to say our tearful good-byes to Em & Gem for the second time in a couple of weeks.

The rest of the day went by pretty quickly & before we knew it we were at the bus port. We had enough time there for Suellen to make some enquiries & send me off in a cab to a depot where my jumper was waiting for me. I'd left it on the bus from Bonito & they'd stashed it in the lost & found. That's both of us that had left a jumper on a bus & been able to recover it (and the camera). Maybe South America isn't such a scary place after all. Those things would be long gone in Oz.
The night bus sucked! We boarded around 5ish in the afternoon & didn't get into Sao Paulo until 11am. The less said about it the better.
