Iguazu Falls

Second largest falls in the world. The name of the falls comes from the Guarani word "y" meaning water and "guazu" meaning big.

Detail shot

Today is my last day at the farm school.

Tomorrow we are headed to Asuncion to buy souvenirs then head to Iguazu Falls.

Here and There

I caught one of the students sharpening machetes 

on my walk this afternoon.

Students take a break and enjoy some Yerba Mate and conversation. Mate is a staple here in Paraguay, and is almost always enjoyed with friends. 

Another trip to Asuncion this weekend.

Sunset shots

Our video camera finally arrived yesterday after a week in customs. We began shooting today, and everyone is really excited to start our project.

My lovely Fati. We wouldn't be able to survive out here without her wonderful Spanish skills.

I'm feeling a bit under the weather, but everything is going well in Paraguay.

Another day on the farm

Shoveling manure.

I think my photo story is coming along well. I'm taking tons of pictures, but the highlight of my day was riding horses.
