22-Aug-2004 -- After visiting the ruins of São Miguel das Missões we head for São Pedro das Missões in search of this confluence.
Due to an error in the map of an important magazine that we were using, we got close to the border with Argentina. Solving the problem of the map the things become easy.
This confluence is in Mr. Carmo Mitmann's land in the small city of Pinheiro Machado. Mr. Mitmann received us cordially and followed us to the point for the visit registry.
Our friend Martin Riordan very well details the place in the visit #1.
