Niagara Falls

That was AMAZING! Really. I've seen pictures of Niagara Falls all my life. And I have to say, they really do look like the pictures, BUT...it's definitely something you have to experience. First, there's the shear size of the falls. Then there's the sound of all that water. We started with the Maids of the Mist boat tour. They take somewhere around 200 people per trip;

First up, the American and Bridal Veil Falls;


Can you see those stairs on the bottom right? We'll be taking those up later on!



That's the face of a happy woman there!

Next up, Horse Shoe Falls. The boat takes you up close and personal. There's so much mist you can barely see the falls from the boat;


That was incredible!

So much for the shower this morning!

this is an old plant that produced electricity;



See that huge tower on the left? That's where these pictures come from;



This last one is Rainbow Bridge. It connects the US with Canada.
