Today is our 40th wedding anniversary, so we started it the same way we began forty years ago. After a breakfast of fresh fruit, stuffed French toast, and coffee on our balcony, we walked the seven blocks to St. Patrick's Church and went to Mass. The priest was Fr. Gerard from Newfoundland and had a definite accent. We celebrated the 99th birthday of a parishioner by singing "Happy Birthday" to her. It brought tears to our eyes remembering Dad & Mom, "Les & Lou", who would be celebrating their 99th and 100th birthdays this year. It was a great way to start our day!
We walked the ten minutes back to our B&B, Park Place, to change for the walk to the Falls and ride on the Maid of the Mist. We figured we probably walked about five miles today!
Not knowing quite what to expect, we donned our raincoats and boarded. First, we went by Bridal Veil Falls and then headed further into Horseshoe Falls.
It was a whole new perspective! It was thrilling, scary, and fun, but we made it!
We walked as far as we could and then headed back to Park Place to our balcony and wine happy hour.

We made reservations at Canyon Creek for dinner, showered, changed, and drove to the restaurant. We got a booth overlooking the Falls with windows on two sides. Perfect! Our server was so nice. She brought us champagne on the house! And a little dessert, which we could not finish. We each a great steak and, of course, a little wine.
It was the perfect ending to a perfect day. We feel so blessed to be here together and loving it!
Hitting the road tomorrow, first, Dayton, then St. Lou. We'll be on our way, family!
