And now...
...for something completely different!
We have noiw arrived at Iguazu Falls and are ensconsed in the Sheraton, with its fantastic views (including one from our bedroom window) of the falls on the Argentinian side. (Lovely hotel, but why the piped musack in all the public rooms?) We´ve just been for our first walk up to the falls and tomorrow we are going to see it from the Brazilian side. We had to catch a flight out of BA at 7.00 which meant leaving in the middle of the night so we have that feeling of unreality which comes from a lack of sleep. It makes the Falls, with their incredible rainbows, even more incredible.
To be honest, we didn´t exactly help pourselves with an early night. On Saturday we had been to see the musical Eva, a very saccharine account of her life. As Greg said, it made Jesus Christ Superstar seem a little critical of Jesus by comparison. So last night we decided to head off to Palermo to a jazz club for something completely different-a group of Argentinian musicians, one of whom, Pablo Andals, who is based in New York playing jazz versions of tango. It was great, but we couldn´t bear to drag ourselves away till after midnight, so whatever we are feeling now, we have only ourselves to blame. Oh well, nothing that the massage that I am about to have, followed by dinner and a good night´s sleep won´t cure.
