Niagara Falls, Canada


Dining in the revolving restaurant in the Skylon
Tower gave terrific aerial views of the falls.













Behind the Falls








Up close to the falls in Maid of the Mist was very damp. Everyone was given a raincoat/poncho of sorts.

Mackinac Island


Horse drawn carriages and bicycles are the ways of travel on Mackinac Island. We took the carriage tour around the island. We visited the fort, tea room, cannon demonstration and ate our day through with fudge, carmel corn and ice cream.
