Niagara Falls

This is the other side of the Niagara Falls on the US side.

Friday night, Jerry and I took the late flight to Buffalo, New York with a short stop-over at Philadelphia. On the plane I was hoping it wasnt raining anymore at our destination as the week before our trip, it was mostly rainy in that part of the East.

The weather was pleasant when we got to Buffalo, but it was darn cold! Hahaha! Though I anticipated it and requested Junnie and Mitzi to bring an extra layer for us, I still wasn't prepared for how icy cold it really was. I longed for my leather jacket...

Early morning of Saturday, Junnie and Mitzi, picked us up at the Buffalo airport. They had driven from Toronto to meet with us for a weekend. Aw... Later in the day I realized how long their trip was and how tiring. Bless their hearts for doing it for us and making our travel a really memorable one.

As we loaded our luggage, I was amused at how much food they have packed for our New York trip. Potato chips, chicken sandwiches, chewy choco chips, jelly candies, and a case of mineral water... the trunk of the diminutive Matrix was full to the brim! Hehehe.

Having finally wrapped myself in 3 layers of clothing (brrr!) and settling ourselves in Junnie's car, we drove to the majestic Niagara Falls to see it from both the US (Buffalo) and Canada (Toronto) sides...



No, I wasn't smiling here. I was actually saying: "Ang lammmiiiiig!!!!" :D




I look fat(ter) under all those layers of jackets!!! Hahaha!





Up close and personal...



For people braving the cold and the falls, there's the Maid of the Mist boat ride that would take one right up to the waterfalls.
