This past weekend was beautiful! It was kind of hot, but the sky was clear and blue. While I was out and around on Saturday, I was by Clifton Hill and Marineland (to take a video of the Topple Tower which I’ll post tomorrow. Here are a couple of pictures that show you how great…
From November 2 – 4, the Skylon Tower will host the 13th Annual Wheel World Car & Bike Exhibition. It will be on the plaza level, the level that is almost always closed. I’ll try to make it over to see what the area looks like.
I don’t know if any of you have seen the “I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry” movie (I haven’t), but apparently there is a shot of Clifton Hill and Niagara Falls in the movie as the two main characters come here to get “married”.
Back in March I posted about a notice of a public hearing that was hanging on the Courtyard Marriott sign between the Courtyard Marriott and TGI Fridays. There has been another sign up now for a couple of weeks that I finally got around to taking a picture of. The City of Niagara Falls Committee…
As Fallsview mentioned in a previous comment, the large parking lot on Clark Ave appears to be run (and probably owned) by the Fallsview Casino. I’ve never seen more than 1 or 2 cars in the lot at the same time. There doesn’t seem to be a way to pay going in, so perhaps it…
From the Toronto Star: Let’s start with a simple admission: Nobody comes here for the food. It’s such a massive short-term tourist destination that every restaurant and fast-food chain known to man has at least one outlet there. But if you’re careful, you can actually navigate your way through a series of more-than-pleasant meals. (You’ll…
Here is another blog entry by someone named Beth who lives in Illinois: We went across the Rainbow Bridge to Canada and then had to go through customs, which turned out to be not a big deal at all. We only had to show our driver’s licenses and the girls’ birth certs. We first headed…
From the Niagara Falls Review: The number of passenger vehicles crossing Niagara-area bridges is falling. Year-to-date figures for the Rainbow Bridge show a 7.75-per cent decline in passenger traffic, compared to the same period in 2006. At the Queenston-Lewiston Bridge, passenger crossings are down 4.77 per cent compared to the figures from the first half…
The Americana Conference Resort & Spa is hosting the USA Exotics Expo on September 1, 2007. The flyer looks innocent enough, but when I visited the web site, it’s mostly featuring girls in very skimpy bikinis. It seems like an odd thing for the Americana to host given their family-oriented water park.
Yesterday I received another newsletter from the Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview Hotel & Spa (I think they always send their emails out on a Thursday). They are promoting packages with “luxury accommodations and amenities.” You can subscribe to the newsletter by clicking on the Special Email Offers link on the side of the Marriott Niagara…
