And thankfully, no one got wet.

A few years ago, God saw fit to move two cool families a few miles from one another.  We enjoy a lot of play-around-in-the-yard days with one another… and we REALLY enjoy our outings.

Today was an outing.  WE headed out as early as these two particular groups can GET out… 8:30A.M. to go to the Aquarium of Niagara.  It was a great time.  The trainer even came out to meet us personally and answer a barrage of questions. 

We enjoyed a few sea lion shows…

Watched them feed sharks.

Check out a tidal pool.

Poison Dart Frogs? 

Watched them feed harbor seals, and had a ton of our questions answered.
 

Are YOU as tall as an Emperor penguin?  Or a shark?

Lunch.

We walked over toward the Niagara Gorge, but construction kept us from seeing much. 
So instead we drove over to the American Falls. 
Wow. 
I am so glad we did.
Did I mention, WOW?

I haven’t been to the American Falls since I was a BABY.  I have, for most of my life, regarded the Falls from the Canadian side.  I had no idea how close you could get on the U.S. side.  Sure, it cost us $10 just to park our car… but that worked out to $1 a person, and we surely got our money’s worth.

I’m thanking God for SUCH a good day.  And some fun friends to share it with!! 

Here is a link to our trip in 2009!
Stewart has the same coat on… FOUR summers later!  ‘09, ‘10, ‘11, ‘12!  Get out!
