Today is the first day we’ve been able to relax a little as we are staying for two nights at Niagara Falls.
This morning we visited the
Niagara Power Project Visitors Center –
which is back on the US side. We'd planned to go there yesterday before crossing in to Canada but ran out of time. Luckily the toll is only payable one way and even then it's only $3.50us. It was really interesting and we were really lucky as we more or less had the place to ourselves – I expect it gets very busy at peak times.

This is the first day of rain we’ve had, we can’t complain too much as up until now the weather has been fantastic.

Back on the Canadian side we popped into a
supermarket for some supplies and this we saw lots of unusual fruit and veg, it was nice to finally find fresh produce instead of mostly pre-packed in America. Also everything seemed quite a bit cheaper.

We’ve seen some interesting wildlife too – in America we saw lots of chipmunks, plenty of raccoons but sadly only road-kill raccoons and in Canada we’ve seen loads of black squirrels and this evening we went out to play a Wherigo and I saw a skunk! Sadly it was too dark to get a decent pic.
