Niagra Falls - We Found a Moose!


We've heard that if you're going to see Niagara Falls, then you must view it from the Canadian side. Now, we were told this by a Canadian, but, I feel it was a justified statement. I'm not too sure what I was expecting but it was breathe taking. We starred in amazement at it for a while and when you're stood at the part where the water drops off the end its strangely beautiful. We went to the gift shop and there was loads of great Niagara/Canada memorabilia - most of which was perfect for my good friend Helen who is a Moose collector!! There were moose's everywhere!! Now, I don't want to make Helen out to sound like a crazy lady who has a weird obsession with moose's....but someone bought her a moose cuddly toy one day and it's stemmed from there....so we had a bit of fun with all the moose toys for her benefit (resulting in the pic of Paige and I above!). Moving swiftly on, I decided to take a picture of a nice rose (don't you agree that it's nice?) and then we decided to drive over to Niagara on the Lake which was a really pretty town not too far from the falls. It was very quaint and we walked down by the lake and just took in the view. You could see the skyline of Toronto in the far off distance which was pretty cool. It was like looking out into the last scene of The Trueman Show as the view just seemed to end where the sky met the sea. It was really bizarre and looked so fake! We chilled out there for a while before heading back to Toronto for our last night out on the tiles! So we proceeded to have a few too many and collapsed in the early hours. It's safe to say that the day we left Andy in Toronto we were too hungover to move but had to undertake our mammoth journey to Chicago regardless......
