good Dutch boys

my good Dutch boys by the windmill at Tante Annie's house


at Tante Annie's...

after Niagara Falls, we stopped by Tante Annie's house near Niagara-on-the-Lake for lunch

doesn't she have a lovely garden?
sitting in the porch
eating raspberries and blackberries off the bushes
and the boys got to feed the chickens

more of the Falls...

a few more...

above the Falls

This was the boys' first trip to Niagara Falls (Canada side). I wish I could convey how impressive they are through the photographs, but unfortunately the roar of the water doesn't quite come across!

Micah hanging on to the handrail watching the water rush past and over the brink
a view over the edge
looking out across the "horseshoe falls"... the water hits the bottom so hard that it sends the mist spraying all the way back up!
Jacob was using his photography skills as well

Friday, September 8... at the Whirlpool

we stopped at the Whirlpool below the falls first...
Micah & Michael...

the gondola that stretches across the river
somehow Jacob got sandwiched between a bunch of people that we don't know... he's the slim one :)
don't lean out too far!

in the car

this is the position assumed by the boys while riding in the car, throughout our trip to Canada

at the B&B

that's our B&B in the background... a nice house on the shore of Lake Ontario

Jacob enjoying one of the (few) staples of his diet: PB&J
Micah doing the same... goofy!

Thursday, September 7... arriving in Canada

Upon our arrival to the B&B where we stayed in Canada, we witnessed a spectacular sunset from the lakeshore... right across the street.


the sun was actually a deep shade of red in person
happy to be out of the car... although the 6 1/2-hour drive was fun for the boys with gameboys and DVD player all hooked up
