Falling for Niagara

 My vacation in pictures: A picture says a thousand words, so I'll post some instead of writing.

Also, most of my writing is related to the picture(s) above it. Keep this in mind, or you may become very confused.

 

Here I am the first day we got to New York. The place we were staying at had lots of cats.  

Here I am in Skaneateles, dipping my feet in the freezing water of Skaneateles Lake. There were lots of ducks. 

And now here, I'll give you what you want: NIAGARA!

This is the view from the observation deck. It was pretty dang foggy. But amazing. Oh, and I also have this fear of heights, so I was pretty nervous. I can't climb ladders, but under 20 feet is okay. I can sit easily on the lower parts of my roof. But higher than that... I'M FREAKIN' OUT, MAN! 

Here? Here, I was hyperventilating. My mom just told me to smile for the camera and not look too petrified. 

Here are some more pictures of the falls. The white and brown stuff is snow mixed with dirt and shaped with wind/water.

 

It looks a bit like ice cream, doesn't it?

These are from when we went down into the gorge next to the river. The one on the right is the Bridal Falls, a smaller waterfall next to the American Falls, which is on the left. What you see in those pictures is actually only a small bit of the American Falls, the whole thing would be the view from the observation deck. There were also a lot of seagulls around in the gorge. Apparently it was breeding season, and there aren't a lot of predators, so seagulls just mate it up. I saw two that were either fighting or kissing, but I didn't get a picture. They were flapping their wings and clacking their beaks together. It was pretty danged cool.

But really, these don't really show how many seagulls their were there were, like, thousands. Seriously.

 

These are all pictures from the Three Sisters Islands, which go right through Niagara River. They were pretty cool, and small too. All three only took about 25 minutes to walk down and back. Here are more pics:

Thanks for bearing with me through my trip to Niagara.

Spring break is over tomorrow. I go back to school. *SIGH* How depressing.

You guys need your funny picture for the week. Now this is a real life fail, I seen it with my own eyes. The picture taken with my moms camera. Right at my own church. Here you go:

 

Fail. 

Hilarious.
