On Sunday, June 29th, I began heading home from the motorcycle rally in Brockville, Ontario. Originally I had planned to leave on Monday and enjoy the 2nd day of the rally, but a check on my route showed I had\u00a0under-estimated the travel time from Brockville to Chicago, my next planned stop. I decided to break that link up into two days and had made arrangements to spend Sunday night in London, Ontario, and make Chicago on Monday night instead.<\/p>\n

This gave me some time to take a side trip to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. Pam and I had been through there decades ago but our stop had been very brief. I\u00a0was looking forward to refreshing my memories of the place.<\/p>\n

Here are some photos I took during my stop:<\/p>\n

Now that’s a “River Walk!”<\/p><\/div>\n

Finally, a photo of me taken by another visitor:<\/p>\n

Here is a 7:24 video clip I took of the falls. Sound track is not good; the sound of the falling water pretty well messed up the sound track, but there are a few good clips within the video.<\/p>\n

I reluctantly left the falls and headed up to London, Ontario where I spend the night. It had been a good visit and pretty much wrapped up\u00a0my Canadian part of the trip.<\/p>\n

Next time: Wisconsin visit.<\/p>\n

That’s it for now. Thanks for looking in!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
