New York Part 3

 After our trip in New York, we drove over to New Jersey where you can find Carlo's Bake Shop- the shop that is in the show The Cake Boss on TLC. Unfortunately, it was a 3 hour wait to get into the shop, so we just took a picture and left :)

 We then headed to norther New York to see Niagra Falls. I love waterfalls. They are so beautiful and I love looking at them. Niagra Falls are some of my favorite Waterfalls, and we were excited to see them from all angles :)

 We went on the Maid of the Mist tour, which is where we got pretty soaked, even with the poncho's.

 We took the Scenic tour around the park on the trolley.

 Then we headed to the Cave of the Winds. You ride the elevator down and walk through a cave and out on the side of the waterfall. You get to walk right up to it. (and get very wet)

 Then a walk over to the Canada side of the falls. We had our Passports, and the line to get through to the Canadian side was really long...

 It was dinnertime by the time we got across to the Canada side so we went to Planet Hollywood-one of the coolest ones I have been to.

 And as we walked back across, we stopped to observe and take pictures of the falls all lit up at night.

 We stayed the night at Niagra Falls, then drove over to Palmyra the next day. We attended a session at the temple. It was the smallest temple that I have been in so far.

 Then a short walk through the Sacred Grove.

 Overall, a very exciting, yet tiring trip. Theresa and I have determined that we really don't like the heat plus humidity. It tends to take any sort of energy right out of you! We had a fun time exploring all of the different places and wished we had more time/energy to explore even more-perhaps another year :) It is amazing to be back east where not only it is so green (which reminds me of Oregon) but also the architecture is so beautiful. A lot of the old buildings have been preserved and I love seeing the old houses and buildings rather than the cookie cutter ones we see in Vegas :)
