Barreling Around Niagara Falls


We arrive in Niagara (Canadian side), check into our room on the seventeenth floor of The Oakes Hotel and crack a bottle of wine just in time to watch the sun set over Horseshoe Falls. One of our most common sayings is, "It doesn't get much better than this" and we use it now. This is only a portion of the panorama.



Niagara Falls is synonymous with the Maid of the Mist.


Here she is looking misty.


Off we go chugging upriver past the roar of the American falls.


Stunning.



Into the Horseshoe for a drenching. Aye matey, she's a-blowin'.



Rainbows are a common sight but always magical.


The view from Rainbow Bridge.

You both seem to be having a great time. Lovely scenes of the Falls. We look forward to see you both at The Hurlingham Club. Regards Adrian and Kristina Bevan (UK)
