Niagara Falls

September 04-05 2004: Niagara Falls, New York


It's a holiday again! Very apt to say that we labored in Niagara Falls on Labor Day. It was difficult because, again, there were a lot of people who were there for the holiday, too. The lines for the Maid of the Mist boat ride, the trolleys, and the Cave of the Winds attraction were sooooo long! I even fell asleep while we were queueing, and eventually I woke up still queued!


But it was ok overall, we were able to take a Niagara shower twice! Once on the boat, and second at the Cave of the Winds. Too bad, we were only able to really spend one whole day in Niagara. Niagara was sooo far! Good thing we were able to spend a night over at Tito Alex's and Tita Jas' home in Ohio, Friday night, before we continued on to upstate New York the following day. On the way back on Sunday, Papa drove straight home for about 8 hours.


It was sooo tiring but, we had a great time! The Falls were so beautiful! Next time, we will try to stay longer so that we can also visit the other attractions around the area.


Here are some of our pictures :D

Love my poncho! Blue was always my fave color! Posted by Hello




Canada is just a river away... just perfect as a background for me and my mama. Nice! Posted by Hello




Here's papa and I at the Cave of the Winds. This time our poncho is yellow. It's such a pretty color, too! Pretty like me!Posted by Hello




The Cave of the Winds got us all wet! It's a good thing you cant tell from the picture. Posted by Hello




My hand tastes great! Oh by the way, that's the CN Tower behind us. Posted by Hello




At this time, i was taking a nap. So mama and papa took the opportunity to take solo pictures. Like this one of mama's on the Observation Deck. There's a big balloon behind her. When I'm bigger maybe we'll be able to ride it.Posted by Hello




The aquarium was not as pretty as I expected. The building was kind of old and we had to enter via the back door because there was no access at the front for strollers and wheelchairs. Also, the fishes seemed old and tired. So kawawa :( Posted by Hello




Papa and me, just horsing around the park. Posted by Hello




On our way home, we made a stop at this rest area in Ohio. Photo-op, of course. Posted by Hello




Papa has to have a picture with me, too! Posted by Hello


And so our Niagara adventure ends. Guess where we end up next time!
