REST DAY, Niagara Falls, NY (28Jul08)

Hi Everyone,

Today was a fantastic rest day, I woke up early and had breakfast!

I then went on the “All American Adventure Tour” on the U.S. side of the Falls!

This consisted of seeing or visiting the following:

Whirlpool State Park, American Falls, Horseshoe Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, Lower Rapids, Giant Whirlpool, Goat Island, Luna Island, Upper Rapids, Control Dam, Terrapin Point, Prospect Point, Three Sisters Island, NY State Observation Tower and I finished it off with a “heliocopter ride” over the Niagara Falls!

It was amazing … and … I should warn you ahead of time … I took lots and lots of pix of the Falls!

So if you don’t like pix of awesome gallons (on some falls it was 10,000 gallons per second, on other falls, it was 60,000 gallons per second, and on the big falls, it was 660,000 gallons of water per second … of rushing water over the Falls … please, if you’re not impressed by that much water … don’t go check out the pix at: http://s278.photobucket.com/albums/kk118/larryjfr/Life%20Across%20America%202008/07-28-08%20–%20Rest%20Day%20Niagara%20Falls%20NY/

Some of pix were underneath the falls, beside the falls, even with the falls, from on top of the falls, and finally from the heliocopter … looking down on … the Falls and the RIVER!

Wow!  All I can say is … what an incredible tour!

Now back to reality … tomorrow, we will starting riding again (80+ miles) … the good news is … we only have 7 riding days left!

To my friends and co-workers at NWC … thanks a million for the incredible blood drive that you held … 29 units drawn out of 35 attempts!  Great job!  A special thank you to all the DONORS … you are the best!  Giving Blood really does save LIVES!
