A long day with three internal flights took us from Patagonia to the province of Misiones, in north east Argentina, for a late arrival at our new hotel and our “cabin” in the rainforest.
The highlight of our first day, despite torrential rain, was a boat trip to the junction of the River Iguazu and the River Parana where Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay meet. This is one of 175 tri-points in the world; there are no instances of more than three points meeting but this has been the subject of some debate as there are borders where more then three countries meet within close proximity.
The River Parana is the second longest in South America after the Amazon and is the subject of tensions with Brazil as the flow is controlled by a dam 9km north of the border.
