Niagara Falls - Tuesday, October 21

                      Lucy:  On Tuesday the 20th we went to Niagara falls. we saw the horse shoe falls
                      and the regular falls. the horse shoe falls were big and greenish blueish and
                      it was so pretty. That was the Canadian side. However the american side was
                      smaller and sort of greenish.

On Tuesday October 20th, we went to Niagara Falls. There are many different things to see, but the most breathtaking of all are the falls. We came in from the Ontario side, then continued to New York. Ontario has the best view of the falls, because you can see both fully. They also have a tour you can take of behind the falls and more information about the history. In New York you are on top of the falls, which doesn’t give as nice of pictures. Although, New York has a beautiful park type area, which provides bike paths. In which we decided to take advantage of and rode around. We parked on Goat Island in New York, which is the island that splits the river between Horseshoe Falls and American Falls. In both Ontario and New York, they had boat tours that took you almost under the falls, but they couldn’t get to close, because of the current. The Falls are so loud even from above, so if you went that close, i imagine you wouldn't be able to hear anything else. There was also so much mist rising up that at the end of the boat ride you would be soaking wet and wouldn't have been able to see much. In the end, it was amazing and I would suggest you try to go and see this wonderful creation.
