Ladies and Gentlemen

* I just decided to go ahead and post this since I had already written it up.

Finally I'm back to continue writing about my Canada trip. It's been a much longer space between posts than I meant but hey life happens.

 Even though I hate hills, I've got to say the reward at the end of the trip is definitely worth it. Most of the time you hear the falls before you see them. They're just that loud. Hearing them though is nothing compared to seeing them. As expected there are tons of people looking at the falls. Plenty snap pictures and some just stand and stare. I liked doing both. Even though I saw these same falls last year it was still all new. The experience of going with both of my sisters this year as opposed to just one was much more exciting to me.

American Falls, R. Green 2010

Though these pictures are of the falls in the day time we actually didn't go see the falls until it was getting dark. The day my sisters and I flew to Canada there was so much drama. One sister forgot her passport and we were separated for many hours. My trip basically began with a headache. I was not able to relax or be content until knowing my sisters and I were all in the same country! Despite the headache and the craziness of the day, once we were all together we were able to begin enjoying ourselves.

We had a kind of crappy dinner of Wendy's and hot dogs. Personally I hate to go to another country and eat the same kind of food that I can eat at home at any other time but hey you gotta compromise sometime. The only thing that really kept me from writing off my first day of Canada as a crap shoot was the lovely surprise that we experienced while at the falls. We were just waiting for them to turn on the colored lights but were met with something much cooler.

FIREWORKS!!!!!!!! Last year we missed the fireworks by one day so it was definitely cool to come and see it this time. I don't know why there were fireworks. It was off schedule but hey I'm not complaining. It made for some really cool photos.
