New York- Niagara Falls

Howdy,

On October 10th, my friend Babs and I headed to Niagara Falls, NY for the weekend. It was a long drive up with the rain, but relaxing...mostly beautiful farm land.

We had stopped at a rest area on the way up....and there was a tourist booth there. After looking at may brochures and talking with the consultant there we signed up for a tour with: Niagara Majestic Tours
www.niagaramajestic.com
We chose the American Tour- which includes: Niagara, Reservation State Park, Goat Island, 3-Sister Island, Prospect Point,Terrapin Point, Luna Island, Maid of the Mist, Cave of the Winds, NYS Observation Tower, Whirlpool Rapids, Robert Moses Power Plant, Upper Niagara River & Rapids.

Once we arrived at the hotel we took it easy and had some dinner.

On Sunday morning we were picked up at the hotel by the tour company. It was a full and exciting day. This was my 2nd visit to the Falls. I had been there when I was 12 y/o. My Grandmother took my brother and me up to visit family. So it was great to see the area and how much it had changed over the years. Babs on the other hand had never been here before...It was great watching her enjoy the wonder of the Falls !!!

Once we finished the tour -we were exhausted and opted to grab some Chinese food and bring it back to the hotel... The next morning we were going to visit the Upper Falls Region and head home.

Off to post next entry..Have a wonderful Day!
