Melody Motel Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls is not only one of the wonders of the world it is also a place I call home. Recently I took the drive to go pick up my sister. We had a wonderful night. We went out for dinner and then to the Midway where i was able to win the jackpot on one of my favorite games. I won a pink snowman rattle and a spider-man for my fiance. My sister...

At the beginning of my little journey, i took a somewhat sad trip to the airport with my family. After a tearful goodbye, i was excited and ready for my big trip abroad. After being told that my bag was 11 pounds to heavy and it would be 50 pounds to fly it over, and that i failed to register my seat correctly, i ran through security only to wai...

Jeder der mich kennt, wird bestätigen, dass ich der wohl mit Abstand amerikanisierteste Typ in dem jeweiligen Bekanntenkreis bin. Ich liebe Fast Food, zähle Base- und Football zu meinen Lieblingssportarten und bin auch sonst ein Freund amerikanischer Gegenbenheiten wie massive Urbanisierung, Shoppingmalls und X-Spurige Highways. Ein Grund für di...

Zuerst ein mal ein dickes Sorry, falls ich mich beim schreiben mal wieder in Superlative und Schwärmereien verlieren sollte. Seit froh das ihr nicht hier seid, mein Tom-Cruise-Gedächtnis-Dauergrinsen könnte keiner länger als 5 Minuten aushalten. Allein schon die heutige Hinfahrt war Gold wert. Bei der Fahrt durch vereiste Weinreben über eine kle...

Anyone got a barrel I can borrow.

After about 3 hours on the road (via a pit stop in a service station) I made it to Niagara Falls State Park, the fifth of the day where I would see my 3rd, 4th and 5th waterfalls although these were somewhat bigger than those near Ithaca! The guidebook had said it was all very tacky but I was pleasantly...

After breakfast, we got the car from the garage and then headed to Bedford Street where I believe they shot the outside of the apartment building for the TV show Friends. We took some photos anyway; I'll compare the pictures when I’m back online. (Edit - This was the right building, phew!)

We then headed ov...

Hi everyone Well, Niagara Falls is only about 1.5 hours driving from Toronto. And obviously our first priority was to get somewhere to stay. While in our Toronto Hotel room and watching some tv at night, we saw many ads (many!! Every flaming 2mins!!) plugging various products and services. But then one night, this lone ad flashed up advertising ...

04/09/2008 (THU) I board the 10:45pm Greyhound bus yesterday from NY Port Autority station to Niagara Falls, Ontario. Bus journey took about 9 1/2 hrs, with stops at Syracuse, Buffalo and the border between USA and Canada. Did manage to sleep a bit, because the bus was half full, so nearly everyone on board has 2 seats. Border control at the Can...

On 11 December, we arrived at the Niagara Falls train station at 9pm. We were fascinated by our first glimpse of the Niagara Falls town as our cab made it's way to our hotel. We were up on the 8th floor, right next to the elevator, no coconuts in sight! We quickly unpacked a bit and then went for a quick walk to find a restaurant nearby. We walk...

Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember, and remember more than I have seen - Benjamin Disraeli Back on the road.... sort of Okay, so let's get down to tourism proper. My first real trip as a tourist in Canada was a trip to see Canada's premier tourist attraction, Niagara Falls. I missed out on a trip to the falls back in 19...
