8/16/2014 - 8/19/2014 Niagara Falls

Our next stop was at Niagara Falls, NY. We arrived on August 16.  We stayed at Niagara RV Campground.  http://www.goodsamclub.com/travel/campgroundsandrvparks/generalinfo.aspx?cgid=900000942 
It was a quite campground and not too crowded.  As we checked in we went next door and booked a Niagara tour with Bedore Tours  https://www.facebook.com/Bedoretours?hc_location=timeline  We had decided there was more to see than we could travel in a short time.  The tour as fantastic.  We were picked up in the morning and let off late afternoon.  Our tour guide was exceptional (Rita).  She shuttled us into locations without lines to wait.  When the buses were in one location, we went to another location.  She told us where to be on the Maid of the Mist and precautions for rain ponchos.  She was a Niagara Falls life long resident, police chief wife, and City Counsel-mans niece.  As we finished we discovered she was the Niagara Princess in Geocaching.  So there was a lot to talk about.

After our tour day we explored Buffalo and surrounding area.  We went to the location of the restaurant for the first Buffalo Wings.  http://www.anchorbar.com/  Janine Landes (my sister) told us about it and recommended it for us.  The wings were the best and the cheese cake was delicious.  There is a lot of history associated with this place and numerous celebrities have visited (including us).
