SONG: "Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles
TRAVEL TIP: See Niagara Falls.
The day began very cloudy and misty, but as we approached the Falls, the sun come out and stayed until we left. What a great day! We got lost of course and ended up in a crappy part of town [a theme for this trip!] but soon found our way to the tacky, commercial, souvenir-loaded American side of the Falls. We quickly left that behind and took off on one of the best four-mile walks to be had. The Falls are breathtaking. Goat Island offers a great walk along natural paths right along side the water where we saw the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and Horseshoe Falls.
Gabby was the only dog there so she was lavished with affection. She wanted to jump in the water and I don't blame her--it's clear, beautiful and looks so refreshing. Fortunately, she is timid, so she didn't try, but you could see the longing in her eyes. Even though we couldn't do the boat ride or the walk under the falls [return visit!] it was a really great day with awesome sites and good company.
