Crossing in Iguassu seems to be a work in progress with some glitches today:

Similarly, if going directly from a smaller city to The Falls you may find the origin a bit light on RT-PCR resources. However, as Brazilians travel to nations, thru hubs, that require it I assume the testing resources exist in many places.

Good advice. OCD-grade forewarned/forearmed nuances to consider investigating … I’m not going to drill down to see if my queries are even relevant. I have done and dusted this excursion. Does earlier 1Oct date qualify for non-border nationals coming from a border country, eg American originating in Brazil? I would guess it’s based on nationality, not origin border nation, for entry from border nation to Argentina. Remember that a rapid antigen test for entry to USA is not the same as RT-PCR standard for entry to Brazil or Argentina, Canada etc. So make sure you’re getting the correct assay. Are Brazil drogarias doing the more complex RT-PCR? My take from an earlier discussion at the front end of this mandate was that specialized pricier lab-centric centres were necessary, and with anxiety-producing turnaround times. Is there an end-date ‘shelf-life’ for dates of your inoculation? Some countries define (or defined) an arbitrary temporal period. I don’t think it applies here since neither country has even achieved full vaccination to the high levels needed and which citizens are keen for. Is there an online health declaration for Argentina? BTW we Canadians had to have a purchased Visa for crossing to Argentina. And do you have to redo the online health declaration over again when crossing back to Brazil?

@Alaskabear, at the risk of coming across as tone-deaf, current record-level drought obviously with far-reaching local consequences beyond tourists’ agendas, it might be advisable to track the water levels that determine how the Falls are doing on a continuum from relative trickle to the volume that prompted Eleanor Roosevelt’s proclamation “poor Niagara!”. Spring rains might replenish but are unpredictable. These are topics arising regularly in national news. If the drought doesn’t let up, I also wonder about prospective hydro and water rationing, though access may be determined across hierarchies of privilege inequity. Personally, fortunately for me, a November cross-National 48-hr evening-to-evening visit to Iguaçu some years ago was very satisfying, full daytimes each side. My only other observation at this time is that packing in too many destinations can be qualitatively shortchanging, especially if you have future prospects for returning.

I had a peek at one of the Twitter profiles referenced … 450,400 Followers even. Update: 450,400 even.

GarotoDePrograma rates have inflated 6.969%!

The key when getting vaccinated is to avoid this confounder … FullSizeRender.mov

Tourists today already caught off guard accessing attractions. An “international certificate” qualifies but obviously the SUS system cannot read a foreign QR matrix code so visitors must likely produce an authentic-looking vaccine attestation.

Visitors may want to figure out how to accommodate this. A done deal unless another round of political bickering. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/g1.globo.com/google/amp/rj/rio-de-janeiro/noticia/2021/09/14/passaporte-de-vacinacao-os-detalhes-da-medida-que-comeca-a-valer-nesta-quarta-feira-no-rio.ghtml

Spain opened to Brazilians 10 days ago, lifted restrictions that were in place including quarantine.

I want to invent and patent a failsafe feature for my Twitter; this means receiving a confirmation prompt for every tweet that is mistakenly sent out from the filthy Twitter profile to a recipient … say you are responding to a news article in the public domain. The prompt would require you to confirm yes I want this tweet from my filthy Twitter profile to be posted to this recipient profile. Once in a while one forgets to switch out the profile that belongs in a particular sphere. [This is a smile, not soliciting tech advice]

Aha, so it is, uniquely, for both coming and going, where going follows the cumming. And a third step is what hoops need clearance based on return to your nation of origin … with the test optionally facilitated by Señor Manny. ***** However, is the CoV test you take in LDR, that is the typical requirement for entry back to your home country, used for both exit procedure in LRD and entered into their system for ability to leave, AND ALSO used for an authorization that your home country might require?? For example, coming back to Toronto I would complete LRD exit procedure PLUS the ArriveCAN app, (the latter I already know definitely required) ? … but not all countries one visits requires that same kind of formal exit procedure AFAIK.

Then there’s this type of playbook example: FullSizeRender.mov

IMO KM is at about his 7th yr in the biz and is not among those aging like a fine wine.

Also, Kaique was in the original block of photos I had posted, but they are more at the level of thumbprints.

Seen images of him regularly. Know one of the equipe personally.

Hahaha … how do you deal with a past tense conundrum like you came jizz after which you went peepee? Boy was my early adolescence ambiguous. Too boot, the concept of retrograde ejaculation simply confounded it further.

Point taken. Always been vigilant in dodgy settings and in terms of bebibas but Imma avoid the fitness centres and trainers in Brazil from here on in even though they tend to have very good in fact angelic dental hygiene. Ya never knows what up to no good that hand chalk he offers you that is amenable to deep respiration as you breathe deeply through a set. What would be amazing karma is if the currency note you give him had been rolled up and with traces of a separate dose of it that has him swooning sprawled on your lair divan. Serves the boondoggle burradanga bigly dangling buggar right.

* erratum: LRD

The key msg is it sounds like a revised procedure people may want to be alerted about to avoid the risk of being caught with their panties down in boarding queue when panties down is the aim some hours later. Why one would have to complete a health declaration at a port of exit is unclear. I would think such documentation would be applicable for the country you are leaving LDR to get to, and that would not be the same as an LDR entry certification … and/or to meet possible airline requirements when leaving LDR. I wonder if it’s an error and is meant to apply only for departure to LDR.

Only because I would have had to search further for more details because I am not up to speed on the prep formats and personally did not want to bother figuring out how to cross the T’s and dot the I’s because making everybody have to be techie puts me into a crankie mood and the last time I was there it seemed a lot easier to get on a plane to there. BTW, riddle me this? how are you supposed to integrate an airline ticket with various immIgration and pandemic forms? A travel ticket is not the same as a certificate of clearance one applied for. So it requires clarification and anything that is not clear is ambiguous, particularly when the communicator assigns new meaning to an already established accepted term in such a way that you need to figure out whether there is some way you need to technically merge your travel ticket with other prerequisite conditions. Or is there a way to have nonconjoined formats in which any of those formats may or may not have various criteria integrated yet not necessarily as one format, the absence of which may censor your eligibility? I am not making it complicated but it is only uncomplicated if you drill down further or have a real-life experiential grasp of the process.

The entry format may be new. Ambiguous but I decided to put it here in case it’s relevant …

Yes, you are at the busy fitness centre and the trainer slips his hand under your gym pants, finds his way underneath your panties and gently prods with his index finger and while you are in the throes of shock and desire inserts a scolopamine transdermal patch into your tight hole. You are then reduced to dithering semi-consciousness. Being putty in his hands and under his spell you turn over all your assets. He gets away with it because the gym takes a cut. He doesn’t even buy you dinner first.
