Niagara Falls

Looking into the United States at sunrise from my hotel room in Canada feels like a mouthful but turns out to be one of the most zen and relaxing sights ever. Niagara Falls was an amazing force of nature to behold. Nights, the are lit from the Canadian side with spot lights that color the falls. After a sunrise view this great the only thing left is to climb aboard the Maid of the Mist and get close and completely soaked.

Revisiting this location is a definite must and I recommend it to anyone and everyone... But beware, everything here has a 100% mark-up and falls into the 'tourist-trap' category. It's over commercialized and seems more like a little Reno or a beach resort, rather than a natural wounder.

Canada is a beautiful country with amazing contrasts to it's southern neighbor. Quebec feels more like France as Ottawa more like England. The people were all friendly and the food great-- I love Canada :)
