Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls, New York:
We spent the entire day in Niagara Falls, Ontario! Honestly, the views of
the falls are much better from the Canadian side. I realize now that most
photos I had seen previously of Niagara Falls was taken from the Canadian
side! The area on the rivers edge is just so lovely too - gardens and
flowers everywhere. One block behind the gardens is every sort of tourist
trap you would ever want to see, but if you don't want it - it's not in your
face. Plus, we finally saw Honeymooners!
Horseshoe Falls (the Canadian Falls)
DT & me - in Canada
The American Falls
Clifton Hill - the "tourist" area
We walked for miles and miles and spent all day looking at
the falls from every possible angle. I think DT must look like a
professional photographer or something because you could not believe the
number of people who ask him to take a snapshot, using their camera!
(Sometimes we ask too. Would you believe a 16 yr. old boy took the photo of
us on the Maid of the Mist the other day? The boat was tossing and
turning so much, I will never understand how he managed.) We did a little
shopping and added a real winner to our tacky bottle opener collection: a
Niagara Falls combo nail-clipper/bottle opener! Wow, is it awful! We had a
little lunch and then drove back to New York - having to wait in line for
one hour to clear immigration. The US agent looked at the hitch-thing on the
front of our Honda and asked where's the RV? But that seemed to be the only
concern.
