October 19, 2010: The Panoramic

The first day we visited Argentine side of the falls, which was a more hands on experience.  The second day in contrast was the Brazil side which held the views.  Instead of hiking though jungle and seeing bits and pieces up close and personal, we were able to see more all at once.  Each new view of the falls from the Brazil side was phenomenal.  I would say that the Brazil side was the panoramic view, however, there is no such thing as a panoramic view of the falls because their length and surface area are so extensive.  It is a beautiful analogy to life.  A person can never see the full picture from one standing place, however, when taken in the sky, the entire landscape can be seen from the clouds.  The gleeful greenery, the swirling mist, the fluttering butterflies, the graceful birds, and the pouring fountain of falls all added a stroke of the paint brush to the scene.  What a wonderful Maker! The Painter of every panoramic and the Author of every story!
