  • Went to Niagara Falls today. It was a spare of the moment thing. Doris and I got into the car and kinda just started driving. First we thought maybe yorkdale, then square one, then we just thought, what the hay, lets go to the Falls. It was good, the only thing to complain about was that it was snowing, so everything was wet and cloudy and that I washed my car yesterday (took 30 minutes to lineup for carwash) and now it's black again.

    The highway, arriving at niagara, a ferris wheel in the middle of downtown.

    Red light, took a picture of the fire hydrant. It's suppose to be PINK. I was trying to take a picture of the sign for the Casino, just outside of the entrance.

    Inside the main entrance, the water fountain. Second picture is a suppose to be a real-life version of a snow globe, if you go up to it there's actually real people inside who will pose for you.

    USA's side of the Horseshoe Falls. The big water treatment (very old) building.

    I got out of the car to try and take a picture of the fall, it was cold and snowing. Like always, lots of mist, the first picture is the running falls (see the railing? there's ice on it, there's actually ice on the ground as well). The second picture is of the lake, it's all white, chunks of floating ice.

    Eva's: Route 66, kinda like a sloppy joe's. Doris': Chilli fries, a bit too salty, even for Doris.

    The cafe we ate at, very 30's feel. A miniature Jukebox on the table that works, but I don't know how to use it.
