Today we visited Niagra falls to find mixted emotions, as although the wonder itself is truely beautiful the same can not be said for the surrounding hotels, casinos and haunted houses. I simply assumed (incorectly) that the area would be a national park, and ian having visited 12 years previously was surprised by the development over that time. It is a shame that the first thing that strikes you when you gaze out at the falls is not its beauty but the impossing nature of the concrete structures for boat rides and view points. Never the less we enjoyed the day, which included a brief trip to a vinyard, where we learnt the basics in wine tasting, and tryed ice wine. Which is wine made from grapes picked and processed still frozen. Rather nice, even to a self confessed Fosters drinker.
Tomrorrow is our last full day in Canada, and indeed abroad. We intend to finish the trip with a Mastodon gig, so we can rock out one last time.
