Where's Moonshadow been?

Not to London. Not even London, ON.

We took the kids to Niagara Falls for the first time on the 50th anniversary of their grandparents' honeymoon.

For late April, the weather was remarkably balmy. It was hard to take a bad picture.

Still, the river carried a steady stream of ice chunks because, as I understood from local news coverage, Lake Erie remains quite icy.

We used TomTom to get there. That is a nice feature of a GPS: not only getting to a destination but providing reliable navigation to attractions while out-of-town.

Kenny was struck by the vast array of power lines visible along our travel route. We reminded him of the role Niagara Falls plays in generating electrical power for the surrounding area.

While there, I also had to remind Kenny that visitors come from around the world to see the Falls and that, as an American, he is representing his country. So, I encouraged him to be polite to those around him and especially to avoid walking in front of those taking pictures.
