“I took a trip to South America in March-April 2009 and visited Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brazil,” she wrote.
The first photo was taken at Machu Picchu in Peru.
The second photo was taken at Devil’s Throat at Iguassu Falls in Argentina. Iguazu Falls are one of the world’s largest waterfalls. They extend nearly two miles in a semi-circular shape. Of the 275 falls that make up Iguassu Falls, “Devil’s Throat” is the tallest at 80 meters. The falls are on the border of Brazil and Argentina are surrounded by two National Parks, both subtropical rainforests that contain many rare and endangered species of flora and fauna.
“We took a boat ride under the falls, and we got soaked,” Boyles wrote. “What a blast!”
The third photo was taken on Sugar Loaf Mountain with Rio’s Copacabana Beach in the background.

Mary Mahoney, is a 1976 UT Knoxville alumna and is now assistant director of UT Career Services.
She sent her husband, Ken, a 1974 alumnus of UT Knoxville, recently took a cruise through eastern Canada on Holland America’s Maasdam ship. They sent photos from their trip.
The first photo was taken in front of the government house in Quebec City, Canada.
The second photo was taken in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in front of the lighthouse in Peggy’s Cove.
“We had to stand in front of the lighthouse because it was so windy and cold you needed to use it as protection against the weather,” Many Mahoney wrote. “Temperatures dropped into the low 40s and strong winds made it tricky to walk on the rocks at Peggy’s Cove.”
