Maid of the Mist, etc

There's the Maid of the Mist boat sailing towards the Canadian falls.


Here A (and everyone else) is suited up and ready to go onto the boat.


After we got onto the boat, again, I put away the digital camera and got out the waterproof one. The maid of the mist is not quite as drenching as the Journey behind the falls, but it was still wetter than I wanted to expose the camera to.

As we got on the boat, we saw all this foam. The kids were very curious as to what it was. We think it is dirt and froth from the falls. It is interesting to see it, because from it you can tell that near the edges of the river, the water is sometimes swirling back up river.


Here's A with the American falls behind him.
