Exploring Niagara Falls Emma style!


Our Fall camping and site seeing trip to Niagra Falls was wonderful! But not at all what most people would think of for that destination. We looked at the Falls and we walked the tourist strip but the majority of our time was spent walking and biking. We followed Emma's interests and for one whole day we walked the gardens at the top of the falls and took dozens of pictures of "Zim", the pink critter in the picture above. Then another day we were determined to get to the bottom of the Falls near the whirlpool area. This is rugged park territory, intense inclines and lots of loose stone. But as you can see from our happy faces, we made it!
We showed Emma the usual tourist activities "Maid of the Mist" and the "Walk of the Winds" but she did not want to do those. WE did play Dino Putt-Putt, rode the ferris wheel and ate at Rain Forest Cafe. So there was a bit of the tourist in us, but most of all we relaxed and followed Emma's joy!
