Great Lakes -
Tahquamenon Falls

The Tahquamenon Falls are the second biggest waterfalls in Northern America after Niagara Falls (that's what they say). A little you could get the impression, that after putting all the effort into the Niagara Falls, there was nothing left for the rest. But this is not about getting impressions but about getting impressed (oh, what a pun). The Tahquamenon Falls are split in the Upper Falls and the Lower Falls. The Upper Falls have only one, but high step, the Lower Falls have two lower steps and some rapids.
 

Lower Falls

The Lower Falls are closer to the parking lot - this is why you go there first. And in case you don't get further as up to the parking lot, the only impression you get is the one on the first picture. If you are willing to walk the (not very exhausting because very well paved) way will be rewarded with the impressions of the next pictures.
 

After a several hours lasting trip in the car there is almost nothing more beautiful than to watch the light of the late summer sun, reflected in the dark water, that incessantly runs down the steps made of rock. The warmth of the sun on your skin, the taste and smell of the fresh air and the murmur of the water make you realize with all your senses, that this is a place where you could easily await that all problems of your everyday life will disappear.
 

And as soon as you feel hungry, you continue walking on these ways, that are, as usual in this country, at important points of interest accessible to wheel chairs. A bit off these ways, you can find places, where you, while watching the water, could even forget about hunger.
 

Upper Falls

The Upper Falls are quite a bit further away from the parking lot as the Lower Falls. Maybe this is why there you meet less visitors. The visit is also more burdensome as there are many stairs to climb. The murmur of the water partially turns to roar, but not as strong that it becomes unpleasant.
 

And here I also forgot about hunger ...
