Palmyra Trip--Part 7: Niagra Falls

On our way home from Palmyra, we decided to make a stop and see Niagara Falls. We had originally planned to do the Maid of the Mist tour while we were there, but after (what felt like) hours of traffic and a crazy time parking, we settled for a quick walking tour of the Falls. =) And still, the drive was worth it, because IT. WAS. BEAUTIFUL. Definitely something that everyone should see at least once in their lifetime!

Grace hung out with Grandma Susie and Grandpa John...

...while Travis and I went on the toe bridge to get a better view of both of the falls.
The view from the edge of the bridge (from the spot where we're standing in the above picture):


After seeing the falls, we ate dinner at a little cafe just down the street before finishing the long drive home.
Grace thought the airplane ride at the cafe was pretty fun...


...especially with Grandpa! =)
We had such a great family vacation, and look forward to touring more of the East coast during the rest of our time here in Ohio!
