Maid of the Mist and Baseball Hall of Fame

We also went on the Maid of the Mist boat to the center of the Canadian side of Niagra Falls. This was AMAZING! Shawn said he could have stood on the boat for hours just looking around him at the falls. This is one area that Canada definitely has the U.S. The American side of the falls is okay, not super spectatcular, but the horseshoe rind of the Canadian side is incredible.




We also stopped in Cooperstown at the Baseball Hall of Fame. This was an other really neat adventure. We saw Babe Ruth's shot calling bat, Cy Young's jersey, Jackie Robinson's awards jersey, everthing. It was fun to see the early 20th century baseball memoribilia especially. One of my favorite things was a case that contained the bat guitar that John Fogerty used, as well as the lyrics to the song he wrote paying homeage to baseball called Centerfield. I love this song!




We had a great trip and loved traveling with Julie, Kelly, and Jake. They always make our trips so much fun, there is never a dull moment and the kids take full advantage of having Grandma and Grandpa with them. Thanks for making the trip out you guys... we had a ball!
