The word “Niagara” is derived from the Iroquois Indian word “Onguiaahra”
meaning “the strait”. The Falls make a tremendous sound as the water goes over and lands at the bottom. I took this picture when i was riding on the boat from the American side of the Niagara falls. It turned out to be a lovely picture over all. One interesting fact that I found out is that twenty percent of the worlds freshwater lies in the Great Lakes, and most flows over Niagara Falls. Interesting Right??
