Someone posted a very thorough write-up of their trip to Niagara Falls this past weekend:
This weekend, I went to visit Buffalo and Niagara Falls. It has been a couple of years since I went to Buffalo, and many years since I’ve been to Clifton Hill and Niagara Falls. I think the last time I was at the Falls was in 1991, and prior to that it was when I was 8 years old. It’s true, I don’t get out much. 🙂
We drove up Thursday and went over to Clifton Hill. Clifton Hill is very close to the falls and a major tourist attraction. There is no shortage of things to do, from visiting the Ripley’s museum to checking out the Tussaud’s wax museum to the haunted houses. Parking is a bit of a pain because you have to re-up your permit every two hours or park very far away. We made due though, because we had a cooler full of cold drinks which was nice on a hot night.
Clifton Hill is awesome, but the one drawback is that it is very expensive. Each attraction is generally between $10.00-$15.00, so when you add that up you spend lots, and fast. We did not go through every attraction, but that’s ok. We plan to visit again this summer to see the few that we missed.
