more Niagara

We are still in Niagara and last night had about 300 mm of snow. Today we wandered about in it. of course it was freezing but very beautiful. We both donned very becoming ponchos and went 175 feet down in a lift to view the falls up close. It is amazIng to see the spray turning to icicles as it fell.

    We're still amazed at communications! Your experiences recall our sight of Niagara,without icicles tho.Do Maid of the Mist' little train and revolving restaurant still exist? You'd need more than pochos for the 'maid'! Lots of love have a great time, Ian and Ruth.

    All still exist but the Maid takes a break until May the water is low and I suspect numbers are also down. Only fools com the antipodes come at this time of the year.
    All the hotels have free wireless Internet and all we need to blog is the iPod.
    Love J & P

    Hi Phil and Judy,

    Ian and I have just returned from Bali...while you have been freezing we have been melting. Soooo hot and I loved it. I got a dose of Bali belly despite all our precautions but some antibiotics the GP gave us before we left did the trick. I also developed curls and Ian unkindly said I looked like my mother. As long as I didn't feel like her I guess all is okay.

    We had a great time and have come back having relaxed by the pool and been generally very lazy. Hope all continues to go well for you despite the very snowy conditions.

    Much love and happy new year
    Ian and Susan
