Niagara falls

Had a wonderful day going on The Hornblower which is the Canadian boat that takes you past those beautiful falls, as opposed to Maid on the Mist which is the American one. Red ponchos agains blue ponchos!  We got there nice and early and right up the front to get lovely and wet! So fantastic -  as those of you who have done it know.  Did the walk behind the falls a couple of hours later, which was good.  Thought we'd be able to get a lot closer for some reason, but the roar of the water is deafening!
Filled in the rest of the afternoon doing some shopping whilst the boys tried out a few bars down in the main town area! Ended up having Daryls favourite Tony Romas famous ribs for dinner, then went to see the night lights on the Falls, which was lovely. A really large high mist over the falls today and tonight which made viewing a bit restricted, hence we didn't we do the helicopter flight.  Lots of walking for sure!
Off to get the hire cars today and head towards Toronto!
Ready to go on the  Hornblower

    Welllll...you all look just fabulous in pink (I'm sure it's pink!!) Something to keep for your next trip to the Mardi Gras!!! Simply devine outfits. It's not Niagara Falls if you don't get a little bit wet, I suppose you all looked like drowned rats by the time you got back. Shame it was a bit misty and you missed the helicopter, but at least you were able to see all the colours. I can see from the photos you almost got some blue sky - good luck for the rest of the trip. Have fun on the road trip. Love Pam and Vernon
