Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

I still remember vividly the moment I arrived at Iguazu Falls. I heard the roar of the falls from my taxi as I approached the Das Cataratas Hotel. I walked briskly to the falls I had dreamt of seeing since I saw the first photograph of them. Iguazu Falls was a place in the world I was compelled to see in my lifetime. I felt adventurous traveling alone to Brazil to my dream destination. Amazing! I was in awe of the natural beauty surrounding me. Waterfalls were in every direction I looked. It was inspiring to see raw, untouched natural beauty of this magnitude. I explored the trail bordering the falls. It was a mystical experience because a magical colorful rainbow appeared over the largest part of the falls. At that moment I knew there was a God because I was in heaven on Earth.
