An inflatable bi-motor boat with tourists travels up-river passing the canyon of Iguacu waterfalls in southern Brazilian city Foz do Iguacu, September 20, 2007. A drought in Brazil has reduced the amount of water flowing over the falls to 900,000 litres per second, down from the normal flow of 1,300,000 to 1,500,000 litres per second.
