2nd day at Niagara Falls
Lens: 18-250 Pentax & Bigma. Camera: K5 Photo Location: Niagara Falls-Canadian side 
Posted By: charliezap, 10-03-2013, 07:10 AM

This is the start of our first full day at the Falls area.We took the "WEGO" bus that takes you all over town and it stops at many places.You get off and another one comes by in 20 minutes. A 2 day pass for 2 adults is only $24 and well worth it.Parking in the Falls area is at a premium so the bus is a great option and it does give you an overview off the area.We went to the Butterfly conservatory and to Table Rock which is the view from our hotel window.The next day I toured the area on foot for over 4 miles which will be Day 3 at the Falls.--charliezap

We head down to Niagara Falls on Wednesday for a week at my sons. Love your photos Charlie. We enjoy visiting Birdland and the Butterfly conservatory. Everything in Niagara Falls is awesome for a photographer. You have done well capturing the grandiosity and spirit of the place.
