Took my journal to the jungle



After being homebound for four weeks due to the bathroom and bedroom redecoration saga and to celebrate that the bathroom was finally ready (or almost ready but who´s counting, lol) we decided to go to the IguazĂș falls.
My journal came with us and she was very excited with her first plane trip in Aerolineas Argentinas airlines. She looks happy, all wide eyed and big smile enjoying her tea and sandwiches.



Runo is a leaflet fan and collected many on her way. The noise at Garganta del diablo (Hell´s throat) was impressive and she was marveled by the energy, movement and noise.

Two sisters fall! She shrieked and remembered Anjara who lives with Kavindra. She wished her sis was here to bask in the mist.
The fall mist fell on this page. But didn´t she get really wet some place? Well ...
yes. We all got really soaked. :D
We even took Runo to Brasil the following day. She traveled in my backpack and crossed the border humming softly. Unfortunately she fell asleep during our trip to Paraguay in the afternoon and we have no photo evidence of her there.
Tropical fruits any one? Mango, papaya, melon, pineapple, watermelon and a kiwi hidding back there.
She only left the peeps.
Hubbie spoon feeding her from his coffee & milk.
He´s a tidy wrecker too. Roflol!
After breakfast a bit of sunbathing. Loved the lounge chairs in the water. Can you see her there?She took the first one not to get too wet.
But then she changed her mind and took a dip in the pool. :)

This is delightful! Runo is quite an adventuress. And I love her excited happy face.

I love your husband spoon feeding her, and her out soaking up the sun. I hope she used a good spf tho, we don't want her all wrinkled up before her time.

I showed Anjara this post, and she wished she was there with Runo too. She is quite jealous, as she has not been on any trips at all.

Thanks for the big smiles you left us with here at Chez Kavindra today :)

Oh, what fun! Thank you for sharing the scrumptious looking tropical fruit and the experience of the falls. The chairs in the water look so inviting!

LOL - oh this really cheered me up.

What a wonderful trip Paula the photos are fab and it is clear that Runo intends to be a bit of a jet-setter (if you let her LOL)

Toni :o)

She's a very cosmopolitan girl! Does she have her own passport? Did she need any jabs before travel? She looked like she was thoroughly enjoying herself!
