World United States New York Niagara Falls

Highways and Byways with Jeff and Susan Jeff and Susan's 2009 11 Month Trip to New England

Niagara Falls, New York Oct 11, 2009

Today was our tour on the American side. We saw the Whirlpool first. Then we went to Cave of the Winds. You can no longer go in the cave as it is too dangerous. But you do get to walk right up to the base of the falls. Needless to say we get wet. You take off your shoes and sock, and they give you sandals and a poncho. You will notice you don't see a picture at the closest area, it is so wet it is impossible. We then got some great shots of the American Falls. Then we went on the Maid of the Mist. It is a boat that takes you pretty close to Horseshoe Falls. They gave us another poncho and Susan and I got on the bow of the boat. I did pretty good taking pictures with Susan's camera.

Tomorrow we start south. We are going to take 5 days to get to Chanute, Kansas. I may not be posting anything until we get there, just depends of if we see anything neat.
