From the knit*therapy blog:
We took an afternoon to see Niagara Falls, and I must say I was completely clueless as to what to expect. It is spectacular (duh) and awe-inspiring.

From the Columbus Dispatch (originally from the Detroit Free Press):
The first sight of Niagara Falls is unforgettable.
But the second, third or fourth can be just as memorable. That’s because there’s more than one way to see water fall. Here are 10.
Someone named Mike Riley lives in Niagara Falls, NY and he has posted a couple of things about the area. Here’s the introduction:
It’s been quite a month, this July, in the “city” of Niagara Falls, NY, where I live. Two of America’s three morning news shows have stopped by the falls to visit, and, by implication, endorse the Falls as a cool vacation stop once again. (Actually, the Falls never stopped being cool. We just lost our ability to appreciate them)
But, all in all, I’m betting some of the “locals” besides myself feel a little guilty about the whole thing. I mean, having grown up around here, we know the Dark Secrets that the Chamber of Commerce tries to keep away from potential visitors:
From the Niagara Falls Review:
Marineland visitors are going head over heels for the newest ride at the theme park.
Or at least that’s how they feel after a twirl aboard the Topple Tower, only the second ride of its kind in North America.
“It’s like a rocking chair,” said Sonia Devin, who was visiting Marineland with her family from Mirabel, Que.
Sort of. Imagine rocking the chair to the point where it’s about to fall over. But then imagine the chair spinning like it’s on a giant turntable.
Giving riders that rocking, rolling, spinning and swaying sensation is the idea behind the Topple Tower.
From the Niagara Falls Review:
As Jay Cochrane has discovered, changing someone’s mind can be expensive.
The famed Canadian wirewalker is preparing an exhaustive presentation which he hopes will convince the Niagara Parks Commission to fulfill his dream of walking a wire across Niagara Falls.
He has 30 people working for him on the project. He expects it to be 100 soon. He has hired a “major” public relations firm in New York City.
