This just came through Dark Roasted Blend: the highest waterfall in the world – Angel Falls in Venezuela. Yet another reason to visit South America! Then again, you don’t need that many reasons to go to such an amazing continent.
This reminds me of one of the places I want to go as well. The Devil’s Pool in Victoria Falls.
Dammit, you’re right next to the freaking waterfall! Definitely worth a trek.
Talking about waterfalls, Wikipedia has an excellent article. Reminds me of a geography lesson I had back in secondary school, which was about waterfall formations and courses of rivers. I love geography, and I’m sure any man worth his salt would know his.
All right, ’nuff of the ego trip. Go see the links!
EDIT: I took a second look at the Wikipedia and found out about Cautley Spout that’s in Cumbria/Yorkshire. Might consider doing a hike up there next academic year. Haul up my tent and camping stuff from home, and venture into the wild for a long weekend. Ahh the plans! Of course, that’s if they allow camping on the park grounds.
