Niagra Falls

On the way back from Palmyra, NY we decided to take a little detour and go to Niagra Falls since it would only be an extra 45 mins of driving or so.  We all enjoyed seeing the falls, but there was a lot of bad mixed in with the good.  We had to pay a ton to park, the place was insanely crowded, it was super hot, and we were hungry, but the food offered around the was so expensive and honestly looked disgusting so we didn't eat.  So while we enjoyed going to the falls and going on the Maid of the Mist boat, we did not enjoy much else and did not spend any extra time there than necessary.  Maybe we need to go back when it's not such a busy summer weekend?

Jacob and Claire waiting as well.  Claire did not like being in the poncho, which I understood.  They were really hot and sticky, not allowing for any breeze to get to you.

This wasn't our boat, but looked just the same!

We weren't able to get a picture of the bigger falls that get you all wet very well because the mist from the falling water is so heavy.  But the two boats at the bottom are heading toward the falls, so this is the best picture we could show you of how it was.
