Brazil Waives Tourist Visa Requirements for Olympics
Great news! Four members of my family, all with American passports, are visiting me in June, so they'll save a bundle on visas. When they get here, we are going to travel to Iguaçu and Rio de Janeiro. In Foz de Iguaçu, we'll cross the border to Argentina (our hotel is on the Argentine side) and then cross the border again to come back to Brazil. Hopefully, my family won't be hassled by Brazilian authorities in Foz for not having visas in their passports. After all, this is Brazil we're talking about, where the authorities are rarely on the same page!
