Day trip to Niagara (more photos)

We spent the day driving down to Niagara Region today. It's always like visiting another part of the world. It's only an hour or so drive and yet it feels like we could be much further away.  I love all the fruit at this time of year.  

Our destination was a park down near Brock Monument.  It's used minimally: probably because it doesn't have washrooms or running water.  However, it always has lots of space, empy picnic tables and the view is breath-taking.  We have not been here since before John was born because the cliff is so high and so precipitous. 

While we were there, some fighter jets flew by coming from the US side of the river, presumably on their way to the Toronto airshow.  About 15 minutes later, they flew back.  Fastest Canadian invasion ever.
