Hmm... Didn't notice backwards lapping waves. We'll have to go back and check! ;-) And it was very loud when you were close. Definitely had to shout to be heard. Hi Isaac and Keziah!

Overall, we had a good experience though. This is a very hit-and-run vacation, and all of these places could be enjoyed much more fully than we are. Indeed we were on the American side.

It poured buckets on us between Port Huron and Detroit, but it was sunny when we got out of the car in Dearborn. I should do a post just on Rain-X, which was about the last thing I did before we left (apply Rain-X to the windows). It's one of the few products that I consider amazing. It makes driving in the rain a completely different experience. The rain has been following us all the way, but not continuously.

But we didn't do much other than spend a night in a hotel. In the morning we walked along the shore of Lake Ontario before heading out again. Paid for gas by the liter (just to confuse us Americans). It took about an hour to get across the bridge and through customs on the way into Canada, and quite a bit less to get out.

Did you see the waves lapping backwards at the top of the falls? Hope you're having fun! Your friend, Isaac How loud was it? How long did you stay there? It's raining here, too. We miss you!
