6th June Bom Dia

After buying my bus ticket outta here, I met the others on our fave beach. Its a nice location with even less people than yesterday! Hung around till 4ish, when I headed back to use the net. The others were buying me beer and cooking food, so I let them!

Drank and ate at hostel then went to Cafe Cancun. We went into the club tonite, which was rammed full of folks. I was wearing my Brazilian top, so I had them all coming to me and chatting...I just smiled, and said "champion"! Left there at 3.30am, as me and the Dane wanted to watch Denmark play football. We somehow, picked up a local guy who came back to watch the game. I feel asleep on the couch and went to bed soon after.

7/8th

Went for a wander round town, and see the famous iron brigde that Florinopolis is famous for (although is rotting away fast!). The hopped on a bus for the 15 hr ride to Foz Du Igazu. Pretty uneventful journey as I slept all the way.

Arrived at 6.30am, then had to hop on a local bus to the bus terminal. Then I stood around and waited for a bus to take me across the border...I only had 60 mins left till the England, Argentina kick off, so I was in a hurry. Pretty good result, although the locals didn` agree and were getting emotional through the game. Went across the border, missing out the Brazilian border control (opps!) then arrived at a really nice hotel. For $3.50, I get a double bed, A/C, shower and brekkie...stunning!

Watched the game in the local cafe, which was full of locals. They asked me where I was from, I said England, adn they all gasped...I quickly corrected that though!

Got back on the bus to Brazil, as I was going to see the Brazilan side of Igazu falls. They are amazing...you get a panoramic view of most of the falls...left me breathless and wet! There is over 275 falls, with a frontage of 8,100 feet ...
