Toronto / Niagara Falls 5/8-2001
By: Marius Gabrielsen ( 2001-10-16 )

We woke up very early! John Fredrik and Hans had a jet-lag, and were ready for sightseeing at 7.00 am. It was a hot night and a HOT morning!

CN Tower 147 floors! Ca. 550 metres high! Ten metres up in the elevator John Fredrik started to become sick! (and it only got worse! :) We drank our coffee 350 meters above Toronto, and the view was stunning! The CN Tower has a terrific glass-floor. (See the pictures) The Blue Jays Sky Dome Stadion was deep down below our shivering feet.

City life was too hard for us this day and we left early after a real American breakfast. Now we headed for Niagara Falls.

Niagara falls The traffic down to Niagara falls was terrible but after 4 hours in the wonderful air-conditioned Buick we reached Niagara falls, also called Viagra falls - the city for the newly wedded and nearly dead. Anyway, the view of the falls was spectacular, although it was a wet experience. An abligatory "ouuohhh" later during the fireworks we settled at "crazy Eddie's Hostel". Marius and Hans also got to visit Bill and Nancy who are friends of Marius'. Bill is a "railway-fanatic", and we had a great time!
