it was pretty cool. we flew in a little, 18 or so seat plane and then drove to our hotel. we were on the 16th floor (out of 42, and we were still at least 100 ft in the air) but it was perfect for seeing the fireworks over the falls and the falls themselves. no matter what you do, you will hear the roar of the water. every morning we got a nice view of the falls when we were eating breakfast


Horseshoe Falls (because fo the shape) and the "new power plant"
