Yesterday’s link to a post by “Canada’s Adventure Couple”, was followed up with this one: Last week I wrote a post about a short business trip to Niagara Falls. We shot some segments for a TV show that I work on overlooking the falls and we went to the Journey Behind the Falls to film…
I've recently contact @BaymontNiagara and @WinterFestival about some things I'd like to tweet or post, but haven't heard back from either… # Google has a "Street View" car in the region right now. Cool.. I can't wait to see how they present Clifton Hill! http://bit.ly/19sTLT #

I stopped in at the IMAX Theatre on Saturday to look at the renovated daredevil museum. I don’t know if all of the details were in the article I linked to before… if they were, I missed them. The museum has moved to another part of the building and is now called the Niagara Daredevil…
