New York - Part 3: Niagara Falls - Canada

Day 1: This is the view from New York of our hotel - The Sheraton on the Falls. We tried to play slots at the casino, but they only accepted Canadian money - and for whatever reason we just sucked at getting our money changed - the slots wouldn't accept it, so all I got to show for our attempt was this $5.00 can of coke - really it was $2.00 but I lost the rest in the slots....I guess all the jokes about "dumb foreigners" at Yuk-Yuks comedy club might actually have some shred of truth.
While wating for the comedy show to begin we walked around town, ate dinner at The Spicy Olive, and took a ride in the Skywheel.
Jess didn't like it when I rocked the little pod, but she was a good sport.

Day 2: Viewing the Falls from Canada.
My favorite were these signs posted all along the Falls.......and Jess not seeing it as important to heed their warning.We went to the top of the Skylon Tower by riding up in the little yellow elevator along the outside. It was pretty cool.
The views from the top:
It was both freezing & extremely windy. Jess just about passed out from laughing the first time she saw her hair in this picture. It is pretty hilarious, especially if you click to view the larger image.
Day 3: Visited the Hershey & Coke stores and bought some cool sunglasses at the $15.00 store.Enjoying dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe - notice the Coke as my beverage of choice........not so much for Jess - she enjoyed a margarita as she was legal in Canada. I'm such a great influence on my sister.
We had a blast, totally can't wait for another "sister" trip. Love you, Jess!
