We had to sneak into the Day's Inn to do laundry as our hotel did not have any facilities. Day off and the hotel has no laundry - just another dumb decision by someone at ABB.
Had two great meals. One at the Culinary Institute and one at a little wine bar called Wine on Third. Perfect day off. They gave us dinner cards to Denny's (again) and everybody headed to real restaurants and used the Denny credit for breakfast the next morning.
I did go back to the Falls for some more sight-seeing. I got up close and personal and took some more shots of the Falls. I could literally reach out and touch them.
What scared me the most though was the lack of tall railings to protect anybody from falling off the bridges and walkways and going down over the falls.
I mean you lean the wrong way and bam! you are over the Falls. When I walked over this bridge some young teenagers were joking around on the bridge - and it scared the bejeezus out of me.
The Ride...
Today we had an 88 mile ride between Niagara Falls and Henrietta, NY. Weather was great and the wind was with us again. I averaged 15 mph and was able to keep up with one of the fast rider groups.
No pictures - nothing of interest. And after the Falls everything else was anti-climatic.
Everybody is getting a little sad. Most are now trying to cut down on the daily calorie intact to get re-acclimated to "civilian life". I have been careful on what I have been eating - so this won't be too big an issue for me - I hope.
Tomorrow we head to Liverpool, NY and there are only 6 days of riding left.
