Horseshoe Falls

The walk from the bus station took a bit less than an hour, and at first, I really wasn't that impressed. From afar obviously. But once I got closer, I understood why so many people come to see this unique waterfall.
The sheer volume of water that tumbles endlessly over the rocks is mind-blowing. Once you get up close and personal, you realize that. And the mist can really be quite annoying, it blocks the view quite a lot (oh poor darling, I know...) but with the wind it does have a funny effect, it basically just rains on you, even from 200m away sometimes, but very thin rain, that still gets you pretty wet though. It's too bad there are so many people visiting it, it's been made into a human attraction whereas it is of course natural. The town itself is awful, like a mini Vegas, ridiculously stupid!
