Niagara Falls: June


Phil got a free trip to Niagara for 'training' on the sightseeing tour.... so off we went for a day trip...
Walked along the falls, lost our money at the casino, did some touristy things at the falls and ate alot of free samples in Niagara on the Lake!

 A month ago you could not see this there was so much fog!

This isn't zoomed in... you get this close to the drop, the speed and noise is crazy.







 Like a kid in a sweet shop.


On the way to Niagara on the Lake


World's smallest church... fits 6 people.




NYC: Day three


Last day in NYC.
Spent the morning exploring Chelsea, the neighbourhood we were staying in... turns out to be awesome. Full of little cafes and cool shops and funky streets and has an awesome park walk way along the edge of manhatten over looking the Hudson River and New Jersey.

These are all cakes!! Found this fab cake shop at Chelsea Market. Wish I was hungry enough to eat at each place!










Lunch in Chelsea!






Spent the afternoon touring NBC studios. We weren't allowed photos. Pretty interesting tour. Saw three sets, one being Saturday Night Live.





Minnie Mouse at Times Square... had to be done.








How to end a trip to NYC... Cocktails on a roof!








A merry cab ride back to our plane/train.... bye bye NYC!

NYC: Day 1

Finallly arrived in NYC at 11am after spending forever at customs. A dope on the bus came with a out of date passport and somehow still got into the country! Thankfully as the bus would have had to drive him back across the border!

Spent first day in NYC walking through Central Park as it was 30 degrees!


















Don't need to be famous to be on Times Square Billboards hey!
