Went to Niagara Falls just to walk around. Got some pics of the Falls and Clifton Hill.

This is the viewing platform by the falls

this is just the surrounding area to show how busy it is

This is the Maid of the Mist..a boat that takes tourists under the falls.

I remember when I went there. But the weather was grey and gloomy and the Maid of the Mist rocked quite a bit. Fun, though...

The Falls are great, eh? I was there when I was 15. Did you go thru the tunnels behind the falls? talk about LOUD!!! couldn't hear mom and dad right beside me. Those pictures are taken from the American side, right? Being the humble Canadian I am, I have to say... The Canadian side of the falls is BETTER!!! hehe, hope you had fun, great pics!

I have to agree, bradhart--the U.S. side is unimpressive compared to the Canadian side.

Gorgeous pics! You were lucky that the weather was very sunny that day! Thanks for sharing. Did you get to go on a Maid of the Mist ride?

I found this and other exciting older posts today while doing research on how to make an out-of-container basking area for my Monet.
