Road Trip Part 1

We started our little road trip yesterday morning. We drove about 4 hours up the road and stopped on the American side of the Niagara Falls. We wished we had gone to the Canadian side as we were driving through Canada to go up over to Michigan anyway. But the US side is where we landed and we enjoyed the beautiful sights.

The flowers and gardens were so pretty

And another shot of the sunset last evening.

We made our way to Ruby Tuesdays where Bobby’s daughter Kristy works. She was working last night but that didn’t put a damper on us spending time with her. We requested to be seated in her area so that we could at least visit with her during our meal. She must have told the whole staff that her parents were there as the staff kept showing up to our table as they all wanted to meet Kristy’s parents. We had such a fun relaxing time and we felt extra special as we were really catered to.

Then when we got to our room… Unbeknownst to me this is what awaited us right in the corner of our room! I love it when Bobby surprises me.

I planned to blog last evening but this thing had my attention and with that, Bobby started the water and we both enjoyed relaxing in that thing for the remains of the evening.

We have had a very busy day with Kristy and that post is for another day as we’re getting ready to start up the hot tub again this evening…

  1. These are great photos. I enjoyed all of them and that one with the white flowers, ahhh, so beautiful…
    Since I will never make it there to see it in person, I appreciate seeing photos.

  2. Hi Debbie,
    I am only a couple hours away from Niagara Falls! It is really a sight to see, specially around this time of year … everything is blooming.

    I love your surprise! That probably felt good after a long but fun day.

  3. I haven’t been to Niagara Falls in while, but it was beautiful when we went. You have some excellent shots here. I visited more of the Canadian side, but I’m anxious to see the US side some time as well.

  4. Thank you Sandy, Nan, Rochelle, Pat and Beth ~ so happy you enjoyed the pics.

    Hey Nance, we’re so happy we made it there as we truly enjoyed this beautiful site.

    Thank you Road Trip, it certainly was worth the drive.

    That’s cool about your parents Jamie. My parents also went there on their honeymoon.
