Now to the important stuff, how great was Niagara Falls?  It was awe inspiring.  What beauty our creator has provided for us and I could not get enough of the view.  The noise from the powerful river felt like the pounding of God’s heart.  I felt God’s presence in the face of such sublime beauty and power.   This was an experience like no other we have had on our trip yet.  Praise God for the opportunity to see these wonderful sights.

We signed up for the ride on the Maid of the Mist.  On the previous pictures you can see a boat close to the falls.  We had to put on raincoats to keep from getting wet.  However, due to the power of the falls the wind kept blowing the hood off of my head.  So I got soaked anyway.  What an experience to be so close to the bottom of the falls.  Words can not express the beauty we saw that day so I will now let the pictures do the talking.

After the boat ride we took a lot of pictures from the top of the observation tower.  I wanted you to realize how far up we were so I have included a picture of the tower and one looking down on the paths below.  The people are so very small from on the top.

I hope you enjoy the pictures and plan on going there some day if you can.  It is well worth the time.  I have a lot more pictures so show you when I get a chance to see you in person again.  Here’s hoping your days are going great.  To all my family and friends I wish a blessed day.  Talk again soon.
