Millions of gallons of water rocket over Niagara Falls every minute – about 750,000 gallons each second!
From largest to smallest, the three waterfalls are the Horseshoe Falls, the American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls. The Horseshoe Falls lie mostly on the Canadian side and the American Falls entirely on the American side, separated by Goat Island. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also located on the American side, separated from the other waterfalls by Luna Island. The international boundary line was originally drawn through Horseshoe Falls in 1819, but the boundary has long been in dispute due to natural erosion and construction.
Once on the American side of Niagara, we took a ride on the Maid of the Mist.
It was a loud, wet ride into Niagara falls. It was very cool!
This is the American side observation deck for Niagara Falls.
Also while there, we watched an IMAX movie about the people brave enough to go over the falls.
I am so jealous…someday I want to go there also! Great pictures of the falls and you two with it in the background. :)
