Took a detour on the way home from fishing to see Niagara Falls.
Enjoy some of the photos from our walking tour to see one of North America's finest natural wonders!
Our hotel was very nice and very reasonably priced - just a few steps from Casino Niagara and a hop, skip, and jump from the Falls!
Our Canadian neighbors have done a beautiful job landscaping the walking path along the falls.
You can see the proximity of our hotel using the Casino Niagara tower as a landmark.
The Skylon Tower - next trip I'd love to see the view from the top!
The American Falls
I was excited to see that the binocular stands for closer viewing are still there! I remember these from a trip here as a child. (I think the cost has gone up!)
The illumination station used to light the Falls after dark. Serious wattage here folks!
Me in front of the Canadian Falls: Horseshoe Falls
Be careful! Here be spiders! (Seriously, as we waited for dark when they lit the falls - out came the bugs and spiders to feast on them...The wrought iron provides awesome web building potential!)
Beautiful sunset!
A quick visit to Fallsview Casino
Last but not least - the Sky Wheel. So cool! Next time I'm on it!
One more stop for next time - even John couldn't finish a chocolate dipped in chocolate THAT big!
And no - I didn't really go over the Falls in a barrel - after all, only ten of the seventeen who've tried it survived to tell the tale! Who would have written this post!?
