Geocaching is a scavenger hunt where you use a GPS to find a “treasure” at a location. In some cases, you actually get to take something away with you. In other cases, you just take a picture of yourself at the location to prove that you were there (a virtual cache). The Geocaching web site…
Jaunted bills itself as The Pop Culture Travel Guide. This week a short blog post with a video was posted of Clifton Hill talking about how it is a trap. Even thought this was just posted, the video is from a couple of years ago. The Niagara Falls tag on the Jaunted site also has…
As has been reported several times, the HUSS Topple Tower ride at Marineland is finally open. For comparison, it took about a year and a half to get the Topple Tower built and running, and it only took about 8 months to put up the Niagara SkyWheel. I popped by Marineland on Saturday. The park…
