My Trip To Niagara Falls Pictures


The best shot I could Get on the US side of the falls.

I am a waterfalls addict and when told I was going on a road trip to Buffalo I knew instantly where I was heading for a side trip.
Of course I took the pictures from the New York side and everyone felt the need to tell me that the better pictures were to be had from the Canadian side. You can walk into Canada with no problems but coming back you need to have a pass port to get back into the US.
Please take a good look at the ones I zoomed in and took of Canada. I searched and searched for Misty but could not see her, lol.

    You really got some great pictures of the falls, Mac. I have never seen it from that angle. I've been there twice and both times were over on the Canadian side.

    I think it's just stupid to have to have a passport to get back in the states. Now days you have such a long wait to even get a passport. Why can't they just accept the drivers license or a birth certificate? Stupid just stupid!

    Dixie, you have to share some pictures of your falls. I enjoyed seeing the Niagara Falls but I still think I would better enjoy the ones in my hometown. We had a series of 4 different sets of falls and excellent swimming and diving locations off them and excellent fishing around them.

    Jim, in one of the shots I took looking down into the gorge you can see people on the Canadian side getting onto the Maid of the Mist. On the opposite side The Americans were climbing aboard a boat Maybe the Maiden of The Mist, lol. There was actually a viewing platform behind me that I would have had to pay about 20.00 to walk on. From the tower you had to either take steps or an elevator down to the bottom of the gorge to board the boat.
