Niagara Falls

Dustin had another business trip. This time he was in Rochester, NY. We decided that I would fly up with the girls at the end of the week and we would make it into a little vacation. 

I headed to the airport with the girls on Thursday and met Dustin in NY. This was the first time the girls had both flown together and they were great on the flight.  Getting into the airport with 2 carseats, the stroller, and our bag and carry-on was the hardest part of the entire trip.

As soon as Dustin was finished on Friday we made the 1.5 hour drive to Niagara Falls. We walked around the American side for a bit.

The girls spotted a gray squirrel! In our part of the country squirrels are brown.



On the American side we could get pretty close to the falls.

Grace had fun trying to catch the falling leaves. She really got to see how leaves change colors and fall off of the tree in the fall.
 


Then we found the bridge and walked to Canada.
 


Our first stop once in Canada was the Hershey store. I think this was Grace's favorite store ever! 
 They picked out some candy as a souvenir.
 

From Canada you could see the entire waterfall! It was really pretty and I think it was probably a great time to be there because we got to see the fall colors as well.



After we saw everything we wanted to see it was time to hit the road.

The Hershey's store looks like my kind of place! And the falls don't look crowded in the pictures. Were they? When we were there it was super crowded. Also - did you take the tour and go under the falls?
