Niagara Falls

Saturday July 11th

On Saturday the students went to Niagara Falls. It may not be the tallest, nor the largest but it is the world's most visited falls. It is also the world's largest hydro-electric power generating fall. The day was a little gloomy to begin with but fortunately the weather cleared up a bit as we got there. The students got to go on the Maid of the Mist. They enjoyed wearing the blue ponchos they received when they were going on the boat. From a far many of them did not think too much of the falls, but as the boat neared the Horseshoe Fall they experienced first hand the power of nature. Their hair and face was wet with the water of the Niagara river. After looking and taking photos of the falls, the students were given a chance to go shopping at Vaughan Mills mall on the way back.
