Waterfalls and Caipirinha!




Clear sea, hot beaches and my high school classmates, what a nice combination.

In 2008 January my class and I had our study trip in high school. We went to Brazil for 10 days and we were like 30 people. We worked trough all 2007 collecting money to pay the cost of the trip.
Of course we didn't collect enough money to pay everyone's ticket, so we shared out what we have with our classmates who had the biggest economic problems.
In Brazil we went to Camboriú, a seaside city with amazing beaches and a humid weather. We had parties every night and we knew there the famous "Caipirinha", obviously I didn't drink a drop. During the day we visited some historic and some entertainment places of the city.
After a few days we went to another fantastic place: Foz do Iguaçu. There we visited the rainforest (actually almost everywhere in that city is a tropical rainforest) and the Iguazú waterfalls (an amazing experience, just look at the picture and you'll nearly understand).
This falls was truly the best of the trip. You look at them and you start to fell a mix of respect, fear, love and a lot of other feelings. Something wonderful.
There we stayed for two more days and we get back to Santiago. I remember on that day I slept like 24 hours on a row. The trip let me really tired, but it was worthy.
One of the better trips that I've had.
