Iguazu Falls is made up of 2 U shapes, forming a curvy M with an "island" (I quote island because it is not a traditional island - I guess is is an illusion created by the change in height, because it is actually surrounded by water on all sides, I think - one side the river and 3 sides the basin created by the falls) in the center. Usually you can take a boat out to the island and walk some trails. However, for the last 7 or 8 months the island has been closed due to flooding.
On our way through the falls we came upon a park worker and started talking about the island. His words of wisdom were: Yes it is unfortunate that you can not visit the island. However, the surplus of rain makes it so that you are seeing the falls with much more water than usual.
Accentuating the positive, it is a beautiful thing.
