Niagara Falls

My cousin Heather got married this weekend in Rochester NY so we decided to go early and go to Niagara Falls for the day and go into Canada.

What a great trip!! Here are some pictures--it was so amazing to see up close!! I can't pick just one!!







Can you see the "Maid of the Mist" boat in these pictures? We took the boat ride--truly amazing--that's the only word that I can use to describe it!! Here are a couple of pictures from on the boat--Michael looks like Papa Smurf and here is Scott and Ann Marie:




We could not have asked for better weather. I know that it looks cloudy in some of the pictures but that lasted only for the boat ride and was gone--if it rained we couldn't tell because of the mist from the falls. We walked across the boarder to Canada and I never truly understood why everyone always said that the Canadian side of the falls was better then the American side---now I get it!! I thought it was because the American side is dirty--but it's not! It's because you have a better view of the falls from the Canadian Side.

Here are a couple of pictures from the Canadian side--can you guess which one I am?? And the other picture is a garden area right when you come through customs.




I would highly recommend that if you can make it to Niagara Falls that you go.
