Awesome fallsome

And then there were three---with Russell having had to go home, the three of us have decided to do short journeys of not more than a hundred miles a day. But the first stop after Toronto is the finest of all. At first the weather is iron-grey and the air heavy but as it improves, we take to the boat tour. Risk of damaging the camera precludes any photos from it, but we are told that Niagara has the highest volume of water of any falls in the world. Also with some satisfaction, the commentator declares that the Canadian side is higher than the USA one. Later, we find that standing near the lip of the latter is truly awesome. Or as they say in these parts, aahsome!

Love it or hate it, the town of Niagara Falls has all the tackiness of Las Vegas. Golfosaurus---who knew? A half-hour drive away however, Niagara-on-the-Lake is boutique-this, craft-that. As for the wedding, the only person in bright colours is a bystander.Weiterlesen
