we started off on our journey driving through the Catskills and eventually making our way into Niagara. i was a bit surprised to see the casino's there, and the Canadian side looked like a small Vegas. we stayed in a cheap roadside motel (which happened to be one of the cleanest places we've stayed), and started our trek early the next morning. i was surprised to see the American side look so run down, but once we crossed the boarder (you need your passport) the Canadian side was like a breath of fresh air - clean streets, nice people, and it was open to the public - The falls were so much more visible, and breathtaking. hope you enjoy the photos...
