Well after a 9 hour train journey we have got to Niagra Falls on the usa side. Those amtrak trains are really nice, just wish they had a seat reservation system instead of a free for all! Checked into the Wanderfalls Hostel (lol) which is a lovely old house but only has 2 bathrooms for about 20 guests! Today we visited the falls and oh my god they are totally awesome! I loved it!!!!! Went to the Cave of Winds which was fantastic and got totally soaked despite wearing the yellow mac, it was great! Went on the Maid of the Mist and got totally soaked despite wearing the blue mac and it was great too! You can not begin to describe the power of the water it is just incredible.
There has been major developments at the hostel also, a japanese lad went out to visit the falls on friday and hasnt been seen since! His back pack and all his gear are still here and the police arrived today to investigate - the owners say this is the first time this has happened to them.........
Went to Dennys for lunch - it was food and drink heaven,
i could live there and im going back for tea!!
Crossing over to the Canada side tommorow.

Trip so far
I am worn out reading all about what you are doing, your feet must need a good rest. The pictures are great and we both are following you all the way.
