Niagara Falls

Finally I got to see the mighty Niagara Falls! But I must say I'm a bit disappointed. Not buy the fall in it self, somehow I never get disappointed by nature. More about people and how we see nature and our surroundings. Surrounding the falls are great tall casinos ans hotels. Money buildings, or "opportunities" probably what people with a business background would call it. It disgust me sometimes. I went up a tall lookout tower and got that feeling that I'm just apart of it all. I pay for my ticket. I get in the elevator. I say "ooh" and snap my photos. Go down again and exit through the gift shop. So many gift shops, everywhere!

Pics in reversed order of the day, just for fun!

At night they put huge colour spot lights on the falls. Sounds really cool but the effect is not that amazing. Or perhaps it was just diminished a bit by the snow fall.

Broadway next!

It was really raw and cold, the wind cut through your body like a samurai cuts pineapples.
A lot of things were closed or under repair. You could feel you were here during off/low season.

No comment.

Going up.

Up.

Down.

A bit icy.

Just like looking in the mirror every morning.

I was the only one I could see taking photos in the tunnels under the fall. This was a really interesting space.

Left or right?

The day started out with a visit to the town Niagara on the Lake. The Lake being lake Ontario, of course.

Lake Ontario with some interesting winter forms along the beach.

This is what you need a cold day in February.

Mandy is taking forever to order.
