Back From Short Vacation

We came back from Canada on Monday night. It was short vacation and our 4th visit to the falls. We had a good time. We arrived in Niagara,Canada on the Saturday afternoon.We stayed at the Marriot Gateway Hotel and our room was facing the Canadian Horse shoe fall,  The view was breathtaking. Our room was on 14th floor and surprisingly,  we still could hear the roar of the falls, especially at night or early morning. It was a  very pleasing site. I couldn't move away from the window.
Where we stayed was quite a happening place. All top hotels, restaurants, stores, casino, live band outside every restaurants. It was great fun walking on the FallsView Boulevard.
We took Maid of the Mist, boat ride which takes you inside the fall. I had pictures taken and also the video of it.
Raj alone went on the Skylon Towers. The tower has observatory deck and revolving restaurant in it. On nights there was beautiful display of the fireworks over the river and the falls.
On our way back Raj wanted to visit the city of Buffalo, NY to try out its famous Buffalo Chicken Wings. Chicken wings are marinated in the hot, spicy buffalo sauce and grilled. These wings are available in NJ too, but Raj wanted to try it in Buffalo. This has nothing to do with the real Buffalo.
I will soon post the pictures here. Raj has posted few on his FB account. If any of you have FB you can view it there.
Hope you guys are fine. In next two weeks I will keep you updated with whats going on here for the big day The Ganesh Chaturthi.
