Over the summer my parents and my little brother went to Canada to see our exchange student, no I didn’t get to go. Anyway they ended up going to Niagara falls and this is one of the pictures they took.

This was a big stop for our exchange student who was hoping to see them while he was here with us. Unfortunately we couldn’t do that so his parents decided they would stop later. I think this is a natural wonder that everyone should see. I hear it’s beautiful. I think my one little sister and I are the only ones in our family that have not been there now. Eventually I will get there.

Facts about Niagara Falls

 The falls are made up of 3 different waterfalls:

• American Falls  (between Prospect Point and Luna Island)

• Bridal Veil Falls (between Luna Island and Goat Island)

• Canadian/Horseshoe Falls (between Goat Island and Table Rock)

The height of the falls is 176 ft but the actual fall is 70 because of rocks at the bottom

The falls were a result of the last ice age, just as the great lakes are

It is located between the two cities of Niagara falls New York and Niagara Falls Ontario
