I was told not to miss the Canadian side of the Niagara Falls so I headed across the border an act that I thoroughly hate due to the long lines and the feeling of being interrogated. But I wanted to shop at Costco and see the falls from a different prospective. Wow! I got there before the suffocating crowds and the view were amazing. While on the US side you are on top of the action, on the Canadian side you can see the action. It was a much more appreciated impact.
The commercial impact was there, too: Ride into the mist of the falls on one of the four boats going in and out of the fall’s crashing waters; the walks into caves behind the falls; The cave of the winds in front of the falls base. And farther down river: jet boats into whirlpools; tramways over the waters; helicopters over the water and the falls. On and on. But I was there with few other people enjoying the noise, up rising mists and the power of water pouring over a lip of high rock. A person must see Niagara Falls from the Canadian side in spite of the one hour border lines.
