Day 12 – 15: Niagara Falls – “Look! That’s where Lois Lane threw herself in the river!”
We ship out of Toronto and head south to Niagara Falls by train. After availing of the very last of our weekly transit cards’ usage, we navigate around the high ceiling halls and winding corridors of Unity Station and wait for boarding.
It’s here I gut my Lonely Planet Guide to Canada. Excising vast reams of information, reducing the tome down to merely contain references to Niagara and the last stop on our Canadian sojourn, Vancouver, the book is no longer as impressive in girth or in weight. I’m sure other items I’m carting around the world will experience similar fates.
We board and, once again due to some satellite hiccups, wifi is available for free so I write and catch up on what’s going on in Internet-land. From the backlog of articles I earmark for future reading it’s obvious the place has been getting on along without me quite nicely.
Two hours later and the train slows and deposits us in sunny Niagara Falls.
