Niagara Falls

Who can resist a virtual trip to Niagara Falls? This quintessential honeymoon destination is actually comprised of three separate waterfalls and two merged but distinct cities, one in Canada and one in the US, and was the setting of Niagara starring Marilyn Monroe and Wonderfalls (a television series). The falls also provide hydro-electric power to both Ontario and New York.

Daredevils from 22 to 63 have gone over the falls on purpose, and the youngest purpose to go over by accident was just seven years old! It is now illegal to go over the falls, but people still do it occasionally. The last person to go over was Kirk Jones in 2003. Now, I have to tell you that while I would like to go to Niagara Falls, I have zero desire to go over them.

Should you wish to go, I invite you to check out this site for Niagara Falls Hotels. I like this site because in addition to the hotel listings, you can find good articles about your intended destination. Just look in the right hand sidebar for links, or start with this Niagara Falls travel guide. You’ll find enough information there to get started on your planning, and then click the links on the right even more information.

I went to Niagara Falls when I was a wee tot but I don’t remember it much (to my Mom’s dismay) and I would love to go back to refresh my memory.
