On our way to Niagara Falls...

Aug 7

Today we only drove around 330 miles! A doddle really and, shock of shocks, David drove most of it. A bit mean that last comment but we are both more comfortable when I drive and he takes photos.

We arrived in Amherst just outside Niagara about 4:30 pm and I'm so glad we did because we have experienced another torrential downpour with hail, thunder and lightning! The hotel pool looks good so we'll have a swim before we leave, but tomorrow is Niagara Falls - picked up all the leaflets and packed the passports in case we decide to walk across the bridge into Canada. We'll see what time we have.

We met a lovely young lady in our restaurant tonight. I was very bad and omitted to get her name but if [you] are reading this, it was a pleasure to meet you and we wish you well with your studies and your dancing - you'll be great, either in front or behind the camera. Hope you do get to Ireland for the world finals.

For those of you at home who are reading our ramblings, more exciting things are on the horizon again because, obviously, the big push of driving is now over and we can take time to stop and see things properly..... in our defence we have now travelled over 3500 miles!!
