Yesterday one of my Google Alerts had a link to http://www.niagaraconventionciviccentre.com/attractions.php that mentioned Clifton Hill. I was intrigued, so I visited the link. At first glance, it appeared to be legit and I wondered why there weren’t more attractions listed. Then I noticed that all of the attractions were owned by the same company. I…
Another in my series on hotel room keycards… It might seem like I’ve found a lot of these, but when you consider how many rooms are booked each day throughout the year, there is actually a surprisingly small number of these discarded improperly. The most recent one I found was for the Hilton Hotel and…
This Liquor License Application was on the window at the Ramada on Stanley Ave. http://twitpic.com/1zbudj # I experienced a pretty strong earthquake once in Taiwan, but didn't even feel the one here today. Weird! # RT @nfevents: #Niagara Falls will be busy on the weekend with the annual June Jitterbug event. #VW Beetles, Golfs, Buses,…
I was talking to my neighhbour the other day. He had originally told me he was going to Safari Niagara on Father’s Day. I asked him how the trip was, and he said that he hadn’t gone as he went to the Niagara Falls Motorcycle Rally (he’s got a Harley and loves to ride). I…

Like many of the attractions on Clifton Hill, I’ve been to Dinosaur Park Miniature Golf lots of times (perhaps a dozen). I went when it was located right on Clifton Hill (before Boston Pizza and the Great Canadian Midway came along), and have played it in its current location. I’ve always thought the grounds were…
RT @whirlpooljet: Here is “Gettin’ Wet in Niagara” that Jennifer and Frank from Breakfast Television put together http://fb.me/AaignGPm # The Dave & Busters on Clifton Hill now has some “garage” doors. I’m not sure what that area is. http://twitpic.com/1z2lpd #
As I tweeted last week, I stopped by the new Niagara Falls location of Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville. I walked all through the restaurant to check it out. I haven’t eaten there yet, but here are some observations: They did a very nice job fixing up that building. It has a definite “island” theme to it….
A couple of weeks ago I went with my family to Brick City on Clifton Hill. I’ve been there a few times before, and I wasn’t that keen on going, but both of my sons really wanted to go. Even though I had seen almost all of it before, it was still good to go….
