Back

Hey there everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts lately but I haven't been using the camera so much and this site would be boring without photos!

Things are going well, we have been busy trying to find a new flat as we have to be out of this one at the end of August. I have been doing a little bit of temp work, just filing and stuff, definitely not working too hard, but when your being paid $12 an hour why would you. Thats actually considered alright money here, minimum wage is $8 per hour.

Anyhoo we last weekend we did some stuff that was derfinately worth taking photos of, we went to Niagra falls!

I took heaps of shots so here is a few of the best ones.
As you can see the mist goes right up into the air for ages, its like rain all the time.
Right up close you can see how fast the water is flowing, its crazy.



We got someone to take our photo in front of the falls, they are really there but you wouldn't know it.There are actually 2 sets of falls and in the middle is an island. The photos so far have been from the Canadian falls, they are more spectacular. The American one is a bit of a dud in comparison. You can take that bridge accross to the states.
By far the best thing to do there is to go on the maid of the mist, its that little boat you can see and it goes right up close to the falls.

From up top it looks like the boat is blue, but its just packed with tourists in blue raincoats.
When you get up close its so wet that you can't even see, the spray is just going everywhere, its like being in the heaviest rain ever.


This was the aftermath.
Here is another maid of the mist.
Apart from the falls, Niagara is pretty much like surfers paradise, just heaps of crappy novelty places, wax museums, haunted houses and rides and stuff.

Frankenstein loves those whoppers.
Last night was also great, I saw the mighty propaghandi play! They were awesome and you guys at home should all be praying for a tour.



If your religious or easily offended you might want to skip this next one.



You might also be offended by the singing along in this one.


It was an awesome show, one of the best I have ever seen.

I'll try to keep the posts more regular and get back to once a week or something. There will definately be something new posted before the weekend though, but to find out what its about you will have to tune in again later.
