From the Cambridge Times: It’s wondrous in size with a northwoods theme and it’s wet – really wet. Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls, Ont. boasts Bear Track Landing, an indoor – yes, indoor – water park that is 103,000-square-feet in size. Guests of the resort will be impressed by the water park’s seven swimming…
Continuing with the posting from yesterday, the Friday image gallery is of Marvel Super Heroes Adventure City. I went in yesterday to check it out and was a little surprised with the changes. It hasn’t changed dramatically, but it seems like every time I go in there are less games. However, they have changed the…

There are lots of different magazines and fliers that are around. I thought I had looked through them all, but I recently flipped through the Menus magazine, and was impressed with it. I’ve seen it around, but I guess I’d never looked at it before. I picked up my copy at the Pen Centre in…
The weather has been consistently cold, and I don’t know how many snowy videos you want to see. For the video of the week today I’ve found a nice video on YouTube that shows Clifton Hill, the Falls, fireworks, and more. The video is 7 minutes long but is worth the view. I look forward…
From the Niagara Falls Review: The bicentennial celebrations for the War of 1812 will last three years, but if local tourism operators play their cards right, the good time can last much longer. That was the message Mary Mahon Jones, CEO of the Council of Tourism Associations of British Columbia, had for local tourism operators…
From the Niagara Falls Review: Anyone brave enough to stroll around the base of the Skylon Tower while the winter wind still blows has only the frigid temperatures to fear. No falling ice. “We’re clear. We have no ice whatsoever,” said Walt Scozzafava, maintenance manager for the Skylon Tower.
