Niagra Falls

I do love football! Sam does as well, he loves to cheer when our teams score and he is a wild man! Anyway, our trip continues as we leave the beautiful state of Mass and begin our drive to Chicago. I think the GPS had us at 900 some miles, yes it took two days. Near the end of our first day of driving we were nearing Buffalo and starting looking for a place to stay, when Niagra Falls came up in the conversation. Since Sam nor I had ever seen the falls, this would be a perfect opportunity. We were a little unsure about taking Sam into Canada, so we went to the American side of the falls. We checked into the "Grand" Ramada and it was far from grand, not even in the same zip code. I should have been tipped off by the $79 room, but no. So, we all venture out for some dinner and sightseeing in Niagra. This is a wierd little slice of America. Apparently this is the honeymoon capital, if your honeymoon is one day, this is the place to be. We walked by the putt putt, haunted house, sidewalk peddlers, sidewalk karaoke guy?, and at least 10 Indian restaurants on our way to the Hard Rock Cafe. Seemed like the safe bet. After a nice dinner, we went to see the falls. From what Cheri says, the Canadian side of the falls is the better view, although what we saw was impressive. There was a light crowd at the falls mostly hanging out on the observation deck and having a good time. We took some photos and went back to the Ramada.

There were no showers the next morning as we were both skeezed out by the bathroom in this joint. We got up and out of the curry inn and headed toward Chicago. Two days of driving can really take it out of you and by the time we got to Rob and Ems in Chicago, we were beat. Sam had a great time as he did not have to drive at all. Chicago is next!
