Our Adventures in Niagara Falls 2014 - Day 1 - by Anne Shier (a.k.a. "Annie")

Wednesday July 16, 2014  - Day 1:

Brent and James came to pick me up at home around 1:30 pm today for our vacation all together in Niagara Falls, Ontario this year.  Last summer, Brent had offered to drive James and me to Niagara Falls where only the two of us had planned to spend three days together.  However, Brent also decided to stay a couple of nights too and we all had a blast!  I didn't think he would stay that long with us, but we had a lot of fun doing mini-golf in Dinosaur Adventure Park and 10-pin bowling in the nearby bowling alley.  I hadn’t done 10-pin bowling in decades!

This year, we decided that vacationing together was not such a bad thing at all.  I had booked our hotel at the Comfort Inn on Clifton Hill, which is where all the attractions are; it was very close to everything that we wanted to do.  Naturally, this year, we wanted to do more mini-golf and bowling like last year.


After a quick lunch of hotdogs, fries and drinks, we went on the Sky Wheel ride (a gigantic Ferris wheel), then visited the Fun House, Movie Land Wax Museum, and, of course, the Midway where kids can play games of all kinds.  James really likes the Midway.  We were pretty busy that first night and I was hot and tired by the end of the evening.  The weather was very warm and balmy and was predicted to be so till the weekend.
