Niagara Falls

Last weekend SM and I went to Canada and visited Niagara Falls.  I had never been to Niagara Falls before and since it was only a little more than four hours in the car...we went.  And I'm so glad we did.  The weather was very nice, the sun was shining and there was a nice breeze.

Can you see all that water going over the Falls?  It was awe inspiring to see all that water! 



We had a fun trip on the Maid of the Mist.  We wore our blue water smocks and went into the river.  SM had the biggest grin on his face as we went close to Horseshoe Falls.  He really enjoyed the trip and all the mist and water that covered us as we were so close to the Falls.



Yeah!  This is me after the Maid of the Mist trip!  The Falls that you see behind me are called the Bridal Veil Falls and are on the American side of the Falls.  But as you can see, the view from the Canadian side is the best!

Here's the excited SM...hee, hee.

Isn't that amazing!!

And then we took the Journey Behind the Falls tour.  We travelled a couple hundred feet down a shaft and into the base of the cliffs.  We were able to see the Falls up close and then we walked down tunnels and behind the Falls.

Here I am behind the Horseshoe Falls.

Here's a good picture of the Horseshoe Falls.  Look at that mist!  It's amazing!
