I was exchanging messages with my friend from Toronto, Canada last week. She was asking me when I am going to visit them in Canada. I have a lot of friends and schoolmates and classmates in that country and some of them are inviting me to visit them. I wish I can go there anytime soon but I have to consider some things. I was still searching for cheap flights last week but it seems that the ones I found were quite expensive. I might be in the United States this summer and be staying again in Las Vegas, when heaven permits....lol! I just found out in the map that Toronto is quite far from Las Vegas. We will see what will happen in a few weeks or months.
Back to the main topic..One of the sights I would like to see when visiting Canada in the future is the Niagara Falls. This wonderful art of nature is located on the Niagara River draining Lake Erie into Lake Ontario. I believed you are very familiar about Niagara falls which also is one of the famous sights in Canada.
Niagara Falls forms the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New York, also forming the southern end of the Niagara Gorge.

The Rainbow in Niagara Falls in Ontario Canada
This is one of the sights I wish to visit in America and Canada, the Niagara Falls. Thanks to Michelle G. for sharing this image. She took this image during her vacation in Canada. Feel free to read below about this famous falls.
The Niagara Falls are voluminous waterfalls on the Niagara River, straddling the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New York. The falls are 17 miles (27 km) north-northwest of Buffalo, New York and 75 miles (120 km) south-southeast of Toronto, Ontario, between the twin cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Niagara Falls, New York.
Niagara Falls is composed of two major sections separated by Goat Island: Horseshoe Falls, the majority of which--two-thirds according to the US Geological Survey--lies on the Canadian side of the border, and American Falls on the American side. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also located on the American side, separated from the main falls by Luna Island.
Niagara Falls were formed when glaciers receded at the end of the Wisconsin glaciation (the last ice age), and water from the newly formed Great Lakes carved a path through the Niagara Escarpment en route to the Atlantic Ocean. While not exceptionally high, the Niagara Falls are very wide. More than 6 million cubic feet (168,000 m³) of water falls over the crest line every minute in high flow,[2] and almost 4 million cubic feet (110,000 m³) on average. It is the most powerful waterfall in North America. more about Niagara Falls
