Iguazú is guaraní and means “great waters” !
The falls was recently declared one of 7 provisional natural wonders of the world. Borders of Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil meet here.

Indisposed (to put it mildly) I stayed a few days in the Bolivian village Copacabana, (no, not the one in Rio) at the Titicaca lake to recover.
When most of the amoebas had left my body I rented a rowing boat to get some exercise.
Just below 4000 m above sea level Titicaca is the highest navigable lake in the world. Sitting in a boat looking at the surrounding Andean mountain range is a sublime experience, and if on top of that the pirate of the Titicaca lake appears, there is not much more to desire is there?
The enormous lake is crossing the border between Bolivia and Peru. According to the Peruvian popular humour La parte de caca queda en Bolivia the (caca:shit) shitty part is placed in Bolivia.
In a way I can confirm that!

Storm in a tea cup! Playing with running water and a flash unit on my camera.
Salsa dance at the traditional August crayfish party?!
A few years ago nobody had even heard about salsa in Sweden.
Now as a side effect of immigration it´s getting popular. Some swedes are learning, and learning well.
It was a perfect after dinner activity at this particular party in Mollösund at the swedish west coast a couple of years ago.
Beautiful place!
