A PERFECT day at Niagara Falls


Yesterday we took our little girl to spend a day at Niagara Falls. She's never been to the Falls, and I was eager to photograph it for myself. So, we decided to go with a good friend who is also a photographer and make a day of it.


The plan was that we would go take a walk around the Falls, take some pictures, and then head over to Buffalo to a place where supposedly the famous Buffalo style wings were born.

After getting through the line-up at the border, we were there! Anchor Bar, the home of the original Buffalo Chicken Wings! The place was in a part of town that was quite rundown, but the wings were great! So, after refueling with 50 or so Buffalo wings, we went to a local outlet mall to walk around, before heading back to Canada to take some shots of the Falls at night, with all the colors.



To our UTTER dismay, we discovered that the nightly fireworks in the Summer do not go on Saturday nights!! So, we had to settle for the color spot lights. After taking a few shots, we headed back home. It was 1am by the time we sat down in Scarborough for dinner. We were tired, but all thought it was a wonderful day.
