Here are the Canadian side of the falls. The American side is much less impressive. The boat is called the Maid of the Mist. It takes you up close and personal and you are showered with mist. We didn't take that ride as we were going on a much more exciting one later (more on that in another post).
Lindsey getting "misted".
A view from close up. It was amazing to me there were no barriers in place to keep a person from jumping right over. I've been to the Eiffel Tower and the Empire State building where they make it impossible for a person to fall or jump off. Not so here. I thought it was very dangerous.
The little people in the yellow rain coats are going behind the falls. We didn't do that either, but I bet it's awesome. I've seen pictures and movies of Niagra Falls, but it's still really cool to see it in person. Check that one off my bucket list. :)

Awesome! I've always wanted to visit Niagra Falls.
That looks amazing. I would love to visit Niagra Falls too!!!
That last picture is especially beautiful of the falls, some day I'll go.
I figured it was payback- since you read mine, I'd read yours!
Niagara Falls was fabulous wasn't it? We did both things- Maid of the Mist and Cave of the Wind. Maid of the Mist wasn't worth the money in my opinion. You just get hammered with water, and you can't really see any better than from up above. Cave of the Wind (where you thought they went behind the falls) was better, but you don't actually go "behind" the falls. You just see them from very close up, and again, you can get hammered with water if you choose to. It was a great trip, and it's one more off my bucket list too. Someday we should compare lists!
