2 Days @ Niagara Falls!
Travel Location: Niagara-Falls,Canada
Ahh Canada here I come! While Stelle went to Charlotte, North Carolina to visit some friends, I had booked myself a little getaway to the Canadian Side of Niagara Falls!
I flew from LaGuardia, NYC to Buffalo, NY on Boxing Day… I was expecting blizzards or at least zero degree temps with some signs of snow – no, a healthy 4*C and no snow! Im not complaining!
The Falls!-more photos to be added late Feb 07
After a fab little free city tour on my shuttle to my hotel (free because it was a airport shuttle that went via niagara fallsview and I didn’t get dropped off first- again, no complaints here!), I arrived at my palace of choice that would comfort me for the next 3 blissful days! I chose this hotel, the Doubletree Fallsview because I didn’t want to stay in an ordinary looking run of the mill hotel. This was built as a Canadian Mountain Lodge Spa Retreat! Complete with Aveda Day Spa, jacuzzi and friendly service (ooh and the fab little free choccie cookies you get when you check in – so good I got extras!)…
Whilst not directly in the main district of tacky Clifton Hill area which overlooks the falls, my hotel was only a 10-12min walk to the falls (canadian side) and when I got to my room – I had a view of the falls too! very happy.
I spent the next 3 days taking photos of the falls, eating scrummy canadian pancake brekkies, enjoying my jacuzzi and getting over my jetlag by taking lovely little afternoon siestas whenever the urge arose… This little getaway well prepared me for my next adventure – back to NYC for New Years Eve and more sightseeing!!!!!!!
