No Wet, No Fun

When we were on our Honeymoon, eight years ago (wow, has it really been that long), we went to Dunns River Falls in Jamaica. The tour guides loved to push the tourists into the cold water of the falls and then say, "No wet, no fun". This is a saying we have carried on our adventure, especially in Niagara. Sure, you can see the falls and not get wet, but what is the point?

We went to Niagara Falls on Friday and it was breathtaking. I can't even express how awe inspiring the falls are. Just the force of the water rushing down is amazing. The weather couldn't have been more perfect the day we went to the falls; sunny, clear, and just slightly cool.

First we went to the area called Cave of the Winds, where they give you ponchos and water shoes to wear, then take you in an elevator down to the base of the falls. All I can say is wow, did we get wet. They have a Hurricane Deck (or Hurricn' for those of you Southern folk) where you are practically standing underneath the falls. We also rode the Maid of the Mist boat right up to the base of the falls. You definitely need to click on the link below and look at more pictures.

It has rained here in New York and brought a cold front in. It was a chilly 44 degrees, burrr. We had to run the heaters in the Coach last night. Tomorrow we have a quick stop over, then make it to Maine. I can't believe it has only been a month and we have seen and done SO much.
