When I went to brazil my three stops where

1.first  I went to Iguassu Waterfall I went there not only for the water fall but the surrounding jungle is well worth the stay.(this is a picture of the of the Iguassu waterfall from http://travelsurround.com/iguazu-falls-brazil/)
When I was there I could imagine someone riding a canoe down it that would be so fun but really dangerous it was awesome.

2.My second stop was the Pantanal, the

pantanal is the worlds largest wet land.The pantimal is so big i couldn't see the end of it. It was like it went on forever it was so cool.There where so many animals it was like a major exotic petting zoo.

Last week I had an amazing time in Argentina. My family and I went on so many cool adventures. one of our adventures was visiting Iguazu Falls. It is on the border of Brazil and is one of  the worlds natural wonders. It flows into the Iguazu river. Did you know that the Iguazu river flows into 275 waterfalls! It took awhile to drive there from our hotel but it was worth it feeling the mist hit your face while you look up in the sky and you see the rainbows it had formed.

Another place my family and I visited was the city of Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires is one of the biggest  cities in the world and includes over 11,000,000 inhabitants. Some of the stores there were amazing. I had never seen anything like it, and some of the cultural stuff  was pretty cool. I really enjoyed eating foods that are native to the country they were delicious.

   Right as I arrived in Columbia I noticed everybody was speaking Spanish but I expected that. there were so many places to go but I only had enough time to go to 3 awesome attractions. First I went to the Andean mountain ranges. it was very foggy but it had a great view. It was very snowy and cold up there but it was worth it. 

   The very next day I went to the amazon jungle. It was the exact opposite of the Andean mountain. It was hot, rainy, and humid. The jungle had huge trees that branched out and looked like I giant tree house. there were wild animals but they were not dangerous. The heat and humid weather was the only down fall but it was worth it. Also there were some cool looking flowers and rare ones too.
     On the last day I visited the Cindad Perdida mountains. It was a hike up to a city that had a HUGE beach at the bottom. It was an awesome hike and them be greeted by a huge city with a beach. Columbia is a great place to visit and I highly recommend it.

My trip to Chile was amazing! I did so many fun things and learned a lot while I was there. there was so much to see and I couldn't believe that everything was real, the animals were amazing, the mountains, and the beaches. I wish I could have stayed there forever.

    First, I went to the top of Ojos De Salado Volcano. I climbed all the way too the top even though it was freezing cold. It is one of the tallest mountains on the continent. It was 23 degrees. It took about to reach the top of the mountain. The view was amazing. I could see everything below me from a whole different perspective , it was unbelievable.

 Then, I went to Virgen beach. The water was so warm. and I got to do so much. First we went snorkeling in the water and saw all of the fish and different creatures. Then we went out and surfed, that was my favorite, the waves were amazing and it was so much fun. Then we would just sit and relax on the beach listening to the ocean. It was so beautiful.

The last thing I did was go to the Buin Zoo. There were so many different animals. The tigers, lions, snakes and baboons were all so cool. It was great being able to see so many different animals that I never see here. The elephants were my favorite.

In Colombia there are some amazing hiking spots, but on that most people miss out on is the Mcho Pcku and Patagonia. there is also one called the lost city located in sierra Nevada mountains just out side of sonata Marta. walk is tough, but for hikers it is not so hard and at the end there is a reward with an amazing view. the lost city is a combination of eight sections that house hover 250 trances. it was a full functioned city were people worked, worshipped, celebrated, and livid. The homes and roads are made of stone and the people who created the city planed it so that there would be no water damage from the rain or anything else.

 

In Santa Marta (this is a beach in Colombia) the beaches are perfect the sand does not stick to the skin for those who hate that and it has a nice clear blue water. this water is great for water sports. Taryona National park. And yes there are beaches. this part of Colombia curves around giving it a shape of a complex system of coves and rock cliffs perfect for cliff jumping. here there are many beaches, but the best known one is Bahia Chocha. It is a lovely spot for swimming and having fun.

 

In Colombia there are many cities, but the third largest is Cali and one my opinion it is the most amazing. Cali is the center of sugar and coffee making. Cali is located in Colombia's southwestern region, about 995 meters above sea level. some thing s to do in Cali are go to the Museo de Arte Modern Ca Tertullian witch displays Modern Art, sculptures and photography.
