tourists in Niagara Falls....

Tuesday, (7-29-08)-- our tourist day…. we did the Maid of the Mist, Journey under the Falls, White Water Walk, and the Butterfly Conservatory…. ok.. .maid of the mist is a boat ride as close as the falls will let you get—before the force of the water pushes you back… that was awesome…. then we went to the white water walk…. a board walk along the Niagara River…. very beautiful… next to the Butterflies…. . Since we saw the butterflies in DC, I’m kinda over this, but Kawena wants to stay forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I drag her out of there after an hour and a half and we head back to the Journey under t he falls…. this is AMAZING!!!! Beats the boat tour!!!! You get soaked….. You walk right next to Horseshoe Falls…. you get beat to heck with the mist and water! then you walk tunnels behind the falls and watch the water come down….. just AMAZING!! Beats everything we’ve seen so far…… Then we went to the funhouse….. Kawena met a few girls from Montreal and ran around the funhouse for a while with them….. One of the girl’s aunts was talking to me about the Hockey Hall of Fame and mentioned her cousin-Ricky Martin is there…… played for Boston? or buffalo? don’t remember now….. cool, will check that out. Exchanged emails, and then we headed for dinner (again at 10 PM)—Ruby Tuesdays ….. then back to the hotel…. tomorrow we head to the Hockey hall of fame with Bill.

(hopefully tmw I'm in a hotel with wifi... i'll add pix and more blog then... who knows, maybe i will catch up the week after i get home!! LOL
