Little tardy with the blog & photos! We have been having problems with our computer as well as the internet program that we use to put photos on the blog.
Jul 28 -- We really enjoyed Cooperstown. The Baseball Hall of Fame was great. We spent over 2 hours taking it all in. It just happened to be inductee weekend so there were lots of people in town. Several past players were there signing autographs. The countryside was very pretty - lots of farms and very hilly.
Jul 29 -- Drove into Amsterdam to make stops at Camping World and Walmart!
Jul 30 -- Moved to the Niagrara Falls area. Staying at Niagara Lazy Lakes Campground near Lockport which is very nice . It has been extremely hot and our AC and Refrigerator haven’t been able to keep up. There was a power outage at the park for an hour or so on the hottest day.
Jul 31 -- Drove into the Buffalo area.
Aug 1 -- Went to Niagara Falls in the evening to see the falls from Goat Island . Then drove to the Canadian side ! We rode the elevator to the top of the Skylon Tower to view the falls after dark. They look quite different when they are illuminated . The falls are quite an amazing site.
Aug 2 -- Went to Lockport to go on a 2 hour cruise on the Erie Canal where we went through the last 2 Locks (34 & 35) of the canal. It was amazing to actually experience how the locks work by actually going through them in a small boat. We went up the canal and then back down so we experienced both the raising of he water & in letting out.
Aug 3 -- Took a drive along the Lake Ontario shore. The lake is just a few miles north of the park. There are many, many produce & fruit farms in this area. We have never seen so many corn fields before!
