Niagara Falls: Day 7 to Day 9 (Niagara Falls USA and Canada)

Sadly its time to say goodbye to Disney World.  We did have an enjoyable time.

Disney Pop Century Resort actually have a check-in counter so you don't have to drag your luggage to the bus stop and drag it to check in.  However do note the timing to check-in and the airline your are flying with (not all airline can checkin here).

The checkin area. 

The 6 airlines where you can checkin here. 

They actually issue you a boarding pass with Mickey on it, how cool is that! 

This is our complimentary ride to the airport. 

This is in the Orlando airport also where we picked up our universal studios pack when we arrived. 

And on the plane, sorry no pictures of the airport or planes.  The drinks are complimentary except for alcoholic drinks.

I took the orange.

Didn't except to have such a selection on a very short flight. 

And we arrived at Buffalo Niagara Airport (still in USA). 

We headed straight to the falls using a cab.  We are greeted by the majestic Niagara Falls, really impressive! 

 We are very lucky that the Maid of the Mist is already operating, usually they start their operation much later and we did expected to be able to experience the ride.  The ferry will bring you very close to the falls to experience the 'power' of the falls.  I think it is a must visit if you are there.

Another view of the falls. 

That how the Maid of the Mist ferry looks like with everyone in disposable raincoat provided.  Each ticket cost $18.25

This is the park next to the Niagara Falls, I quite like the place very quiet and serene, nice cool weather and beautiful sky what more can you ask for.

We spent the rest of the day just walking around the area, it a very quiet place unlike the Canada side (sorry no photo).

Some history if you are interested. 

We checkout the next morning and dragged our luggage across rainbow bridge to the Canada side.

 Another photo before we walk toward the rainbow bridge.
The international boundary line on the rainbow bridge between USA and Canada. 

And we are in Canada. 

Looking ate the hotels and casino you know that this is the more touristy side. 

View from our hotel room (Embassy Suites by Hilton Niagara Falls).  You can see why alot of people says that the falls is nicer on the Canada side but actually its the view but the nicer side of the Niagara Falls actually reside on the US side.

 View of the horseshoe.

A panorama view. 

The plaza by the falls. 

Another view of the falls at night.

We walk around the area exploring, it is more happening with alot more shopping and food but I still prefer the quieter side on US.  That summarises our visit to Niagara Falls and we will be heading to New York city the next day.
