John scored again! Our room looked over the Horseshoe Falls with the American Falls to the left
The kids were excited to revisit Niagara. We did a handful of Falls' touristy things. The most exciting was Cave of the Winds on the US side. We were right under the Bridal Veil Falls. We were soaked and blown by the spray! One really appreciates the power of the Falls there! The kids enjoyed the attractions but we lamented the absence of real interpretive information.
It was a fun ending to our trip. We are traveling home now. We catch glimpses of the Erie Canal every now and again. Thoughts of a camping-canal trip get tossed around. Perhaps next summer??
We have put together a fun playlist of folk songs and the like reflecting our travels. Did you know that there is no old folk song about Niagara Falls? Amazing. We found one by Green Bean that worked though. And Wisconsin has a pretty impressive collection amassed.
We are also enjoying Lord of the Rings on audio. It's a great adaptation.
We're looking forward to getting home although a little sad to see our adventures end. In some ways the trip has gone by so quickly and in others it seems like we have been away for an eternity!
