Niagara Falls, Canadian Side May 2007

Mary Lou and I stopped for the night at Niagara Falls, on the Canadian side. I took photos from the gigantic tower there of the falls and surroundings. It was early spring, mid-May and our Canadian neighbors were celebrating Queen Victoria Day.

And of the American Falls.


They do provide raincoats to the passengers, but it is mostly a futile effort to stay dry. I did this boat ride on the "Maid of the Mist" as a young child and had no desire that cool day to be soaking wet.
