We were able to visit Niagara Falls before going to workcamp this year. We enjoyed the state park side of Niagara Falls in New York to view the falls, however, we thought the Canada side of the falls was much more "tourist" based with it's Clifton Hill Tourist district of shops, restaurants, a casino, and the Hershey's store. We also got to watch the fireworks on Friday night above the falls. We had a great time!
This was our first experience when we got there...the hotel we had booked and paid for was closed! We spent a couple hours driving around and on the phone with Kadie to book a new hotel and get a refund.
Here's the Horseshoe part of the falls. You can see the "Maid of the Mist" down below. We took the trip on the boat. It was fun getting closer to the falls (and wet!)
We also did the "Cave of the Winds" tour which takes you to the base of the falls to get a taste of how powerful they are. They give you sandals and ponchos to wear.
This is Edward standing as close as you could-it felt somewhat like a hurricane with the wind and water. Very refreshing on a hot day!
This is a view from above where you walk close to the falls then up next to them.
