Today was our driving day to Syracuse, NY. Since we had time, we stopped by
Niagara Falls which turned out to be a very wet visit. The wind was blowing from the
Horseshoe Falls directly to the Canadian side so all the mist was raining down on us! We both got soaked through our semi waterproof jackets and could not get very good pictures of the falls. But that's how it goes some days...
We also saw the American Falls from a distance and Mary got this picture of the Horseshoe Falls, on the right, from
Rainbow Bridge as we crossed into New York. You can see the heavy mist very clearly in her picture. We were amazed there was no charge for crossing the bridge!
The rest of our drive to Syracuse was uneventful. I am thankful to Google Maps for their "avoid tolls" option which led us across some pretty state highways and save some $$$ while still getting us to our hotel by 3pm.
Tomorrow is lunch with John Denver fan and active traveler, Gail, before heading to Poughkeepsie.

What a shame there was mist and rain at the falls but still beautiful . They look amazing . Good work avoiding the tolls , they can get expensive . Enjoy lunch with Gail
Falls are still pretty in the rain. It is great you get to visit with a friend tomorrow. Nancy
