Iguazu falls Argentina

We tried to get an early wake up so we could cross two borders today. We drove to the ferry between Cuidad del Este and Argentina. The two countries do not share a bridge here. To get to Argentina we would have to drive to Brazil and then drive to Argentina. The $12 ferry cut out the first trip to Brazil.
Brazil on the left and Argentina on the right.
From there we drove to Iguazu falls which lies between Brazil and Argentina. We visited the magnificent falls and did a couple hikes that reached the top of the falls via a series of elevated walkways. It was thrilling and we got wet from the spray. 
There were lots of coatimundi, racoon-like creatures by the snack area near the train and they came on the train to beg for food and reaching up my leg. They were so cute but not shy and the workers had to scare they away. 
We then drove to the bridge between Brazil and Argentina and it took around ninety minutes to cross. There were long lines on the Argentina side and the Brazil side was quick but the customs guy took a long time to get my vehicle permit. 
We then headed to a supermarket and I withdrew some Brazilian Reals. We then went to a campground outside the Brazilian Iguacu falls park for the night. $18/night and has a dump station.
