Everyone could use a good soaking, not to mention Halloween in July

7-16-07

Remember yesterday when Becky thought that Niagara Falls was a little on the touristy side? Well, we had only seen the yuppy bars at that point. We hadn’t even seen Clifton Street yet. I can’t even describe that scene. Let’s just say that there was something for everyone. Many of you know that I slightly enjoy Halloween, and there were at least four year-round haunted houses to visit. The kids and I chose the House of Frankenstein; it was okay, but the kids were pretty scared, Zac especially.

Anyway, back to the real natural wonders. We had a great time. Niagara Falls was very cool. If anyone is going, I would definitely recommend the Maid of the Mist, the boat that takes you up to the foot of the falls. You get soaked, but it’s awesome. We also went on the White Water Walk which was cool, and the Journey Behind the Falls which was okay. Overall, a very good day. I forgot to mention that yesterday we were able to see fireworks over the falls, and that made up a little for not seeing much on the 4th.
