Maid to Order
Some relatives were in town a couple months ago, so we took em to Niagara Falls on a day trip. Obviously, a big attraction there is the boat ride, Maid of the Mist. You know, the one that takes you upstream until you're almost under the falls.
They didn't feel like taking a ride, but we did make the mistake(?) of going into the gift shop. Amazing. Everything you could dream of = Maid of the Mist. We needed this add up all our puchases: I must admit though, it is a hell of a ride! |

Nice.. I have some great pictures of Quadro and JustJess (from the first time I met them ) of us on the Maid of the Mist. Of course I'm sure Jess is hoping that I don't post those pictures... which I won't.

Wow joe, they let you take photos of their items? You either looked like a spy setting up your own gift shop or the ultimate tourist.
By the way, I didn't see any Maid of the Mist rain ponchos. I sure hope they had them...you know, just in case they actually get near the falls... |
