First (very wet) view of Horseshoe Falls

We decided to take our first look at the falls from the Canadian side since everything I read said that view was better, although in the end not sure I’d agree. But due to the direction the wind was blowing, everything and everyone was literally covered in water, including this window from which I tried to take a picture. A while later the wind shifted, and Tim went outside and got some decent pictures without getting totally soaked.

These are Horseshoe Falls, the largest of the three waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls on the Niagara River, along the US-Canada border.

Thank you for visiting our side of the falls. Sorry for the “dampness”!

That's a power of water.

I do think the view from the Canadian side is the better view, and yes it's almost always wet around the falls.
