Yesterday I saw everything there is to see in Niagara… the waterfalls from above, the waterfalls from a boat (getting soaking wet in the process), a vortex in the water near the falls, a very big tower to see the falls from even higher and some other sites the bus passed.<\/p>\n
To my opinion the site was very impressive even though it was a bit smaller that I expected. Somehow the Americans have a knack of making\/seeing things seem bigger than they really are.<\/p>\n
Today I also did a small tour in a cave system behind the falls, but this was a bit of a disappointment. I also bought a number of souvenirs, and I learned that if you walk across the border, and want to walk back to America it will cost you 50 cents in small change. If you don’t have 50 cents in small change you cannot return to America… pretty annoying if this makes you ATM some money and buy a cheap product to get some spare change. After you pay the 50 cents you can just past through to America in a breeze. Strange because in Schiphol I was frisked 4 times, my bag searched twice, my hand luggage searched three times and I needed to take off my shoes. Clearly they trust Canadians much more.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
