Niagara!

Every visit to Buffalo includes a mandatory visit to Niagara Falls.  The day we went was very hot.  It was a Saturday, and there were plenty of people all over the place.  We ended up getting passes for the trolley, which we had never done before.  It was nice because the kids didn't have to walk nearly as far, and lasted much longer than they would have if they had to walk everywhere in that heat.

It's been a long time since I was on the Canadian side of the Falls, but I like the American side.  You get right in there, you can walk right up to where the water is going over. 

"It says right here in this pamphlet that there are some lookout spots where we can see the Falls up close.  I wonder where they are..."

We haven't yet taken the kids down the rabbit hole to the Cave of the Winds, maybe next time we visit, we will take them all down there.  The base of the Falls has a lot of power to it as you stand there getting blasted in the face by the water.

It's hard to really see the depth and breadth of the water flowing over from a still picture. 


I expect this rock will be gone next time I visit.
