RETURN TO NIAGARA

Geoff, friend from Wellington is visiting for a week and we went to Niagara Falls for the day on Saturday.

This is the third time we've been to Niagara and the first time when it hasn't been raining.


September 2013 - raining

October 2013 - raining

It was a stunning day and I managed to get lots of good photos and videos.


June 2014 - not raining
 
We travelled by train, leaving about 9AM and returning about 8PM which gave us plenty of time to explore.











I like to get as close to the edge as possible for to take a photo but when I'm with The Old Girl she pulls me back and points out the warning signs. Dang!



The edge is a bit crumbly I must admit with a sheer drop to the river where this sign is and, just above the falls where the edge is just by the river the water flows so fast just before the top of the falls that you'd be a goner just by touching the water.



Fortunately there are lots of other places to get good pics from.

Good to see you're playing it safe and wearing a condom.
