Back from Vacation

We are back from our vacation to Niagara Falls. This was the best vacation of Colin's entire life and he is not looking forward to going back to the every day routine. He was happy when we arrived home after a 10 hour drive yesterday. You could tell he remembered home and was happy to be back.

We rented a cottage on the Canadian side of the Falls in Niagara-on-the-Lake with Kristin's parents and her sister's family. It was a very nice little community right on Lake Ontario and made for a good home base for our daily excursions. In addition to the trip to the Falls (which I will cover with a separate blog entry) we spent a day at Marineland, visited Ft. George, went to an indoor water park, and learned how ships get around the Falls.

Colin did not join us on our boat ride to the Falls. It was very wet, loud and windy. Maybe we will visit again when he is older.

This is Ft. George which was captured by the Americans during the War of 1812.

Here is Colin playing with his cousins in the house.
