Mount Royal Park in Montreal - Mind the raccoons!
Raccoons look so cute, they look like cuddly toys!
But there are many signs in the park that warn people against feeding them or getting too close as they are wild animals.
Look but don't touch!

Niagara Falls seen from close, very close...
The Horseshoe Falls has therefore become a major source of hydroelectric power, and you fully understand this when you stand a few meters away from the spectacular waterfall.
The Niagara Falls are a true masterpiece of mother nature and attract tourists from all over the world...

Cruising on the Niagara Falls
The Horseshoe Falls is the most powerful waterfall in North America.
The smaller Bridal Veil Falls and the American Falls are located on the US side.
The three falls have a vertical drop of over 50m and have a combined flow of 168,000m3 of water per minute.

Iceland geyser
Watch the video!
Geysers appear on places where geothermal activity and underground water accumulation are paired.
Water needs to be very hot to be projected in the air, and this occurs when magma and lava bring these underground pools of water to boiling point.
Heat energy increases very fast; this escalating pressure needs to be released, and gushes through any crack it finds on the surface.
Some active geysers are small and blast water infrequently, while others are much larger and erupt violently and more often.
However, geysers have short lifespans as they are activated by earthquakes and deactivated when tectonic plates close their vents.
Iceland largest geyser is the Strokkur, which erupts every 6-10minutes and produces small blue water bubbles before projecting them some 15m to 40m in the air.
