Niagara Falls, CANADA - day one

We had a lot of fun on our vacation. Here is a bit of a travel log of our vacation to Canada and upstate New York. Our first day we got up early and drove to Niagara Falls, Canada. Not too many exciting pictures from the drive, but our view from the hotel was AMAZING!

After getting settled in the hotel, we headed out to walk around the town and find some dinner. We ended up at an Italian restaurant for some yummy pizza and pasta. Then we walked down the main street and decided to take a ride on the huge Ferris wheel. It was amazing to see the falls from up high. On our way back to the hotel we walked by and took some pictures of the American Falls. (For those who don't know Niagara Falls is made up of two main falls. The American Falls are just as they sound... they fall from the American side. The Horseshoe Falls are the iconic semi-circle shaped falls that fall between the border from the Niagara River between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. There is a geography lesson for you.)

Once we got back to our hotel we got ready for bed and watched the fireworks from the comfort of our room. The kids were obsessed with looking out the window. They loved seeing the falls.
