When we travel, we like to experience things that we can t experience at home. We do a lot of exploring, hiking, and eating in the local area of the places we visit. Sometimes, however, we totally play tourist . That s what we did on our way from Ithaca to Ottawa
On the last day of my course, class finished up at 3:30. D'Arcy the kids were still on their way back to Ithaca from the day's adventures, so I went to the bar at the Statler Hotel with my classmates for a drink before we all went our separate ways. It wasn't long before my family arrived, so I said good-bye to my new friends and we headed towards Niagara Falls.
Before we had left home, we had arranged a visit with our friends, Carl, Nikki, and their daughter, Jessica. Carl I worked together on the Scotia Prince eastern european air travel guide in 1997, a car-passenger ferry that traveled daily between Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, and Portland, Maine. Nikki is originally from Ontario and they have been living in Niagara Falls for eight years now; they both work in the Casino there.
As it turned out, Carl Nikki had to work the night we were visiting, eastern european air travel guide but they are allowed two "lates" per year, where they can call in without penalty and arrive for work up to four hours late. This way, we were able to spend the evening together eastern european air travel guide and they went to work at midnight, as we went to bed. We were happy to be Jessica's babysitters for the night.

Niagara Falls, at 7:30 in the morning, are beautiful! Well, to be honest, they're beautiful at any time of day… The sun was coming through the mist and creating rainbows. We got quite wet. Although I've been to Niagara Falls a few times, the speed and force of the water flow amazes me every time. After getting another tourist eastern european air travel guide to take our photo, we got into the van to head to Canada's Wonderland via the Niagara-on-the-Lake wine country. D'Arcy I have been scouting out places we'd like to return to in a few years without the kids! J
We got to Canada's Wonderland shortly after it opened and the place was already PACKED with people! We are a family of adrenaline junkies, so we spent the rest of the day riding roller coasters and other rides. On the very first roller coaster that D'Arcy the boys rode, Alex lost his glasses while upside down, and we were told to return to get them at 2:00. We split up, since Olivia wasn't tall enough for the big coasters, but met up at various times, including for lunch. Sarah rode the Vortex and the Wild Beast (twice) eastern european air travel guide and loved it. D'Arcy's cousin Derrick lives nearby, so he and his wife Denny joined us with their daughter, Justine, for the afternoon. Denny is very pregnant so Sarah, Olivia, Justine I rode most of the rides in the kids' zone for the afternoon. eastern european air travel guide They left at suppertime, but we stayed until after 9 p.m. Although the kids could have kept going, D'Arcy I were at our limit. I was quickly becoming infuriated with the crowds and with people who were jumping into the line in front of us. It happened at various times throughout the day, and I could feel my blood pressure rising along with the temperature. The kids had a blast, and that's what matters…
