judecorpNiagara Falls, here we come! I'm excited.
While I have visited Our Wacky Neighbors To the North (I can thank the ex for the multitudes of trips to Canada, his homeland), I have never been to the Falls. Actually, I've never been to Ontaria except for an airport layover in Toronto in 1995, so this is pretty exciting. Jennifer's never left the United States (except to go to Puerto Rico), so not only is this her first Falls trip, it's her first Canada trip. Whee! I love experiencing new things with her.
Oddly enough, the lodging we booked is the same exact room as the one![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
grrlpower and __disfigurine__ shared a bit ago. Coincidence! Hopefully we'll have as wonderful an experience as they did when they were there. I hope the weather cooperates. I'd prefer it didn't rain or for the love of god SNOW, thank you very much. I am packing sweaters and a coat. I should find my hat and mittens that auntiesiannan made me, just in case. And my Jesus Christ Superstar Resurrection CD I got from half.com, which is every bit as amazing as lorimelton led me to believe.
I meant to do a million pre-trip things last night (like charge the camera battery, and clear the memory card) but I forgot. Oops. Hopefully we will still get a couple of Falls pictures. *bounce* I am going to Niagara Falls! (I should bring a barrel.)
Oh, and my FCCS CORE training class is going okay. I don't know if I'm learning anything, but I've met some fun people. Apparently FCCS had a huge hiring on August 25th, and so there's this gaggle of cohorts in my class. I've learned that Coworker Tamarine are in the teeny minority, since most of the people in my CORE are: 23 or younger, newly engaged/wed (to the opposite sex), have just left college with their Bachelor's Degrees, are unlicensed, and are from Ohio. It's like being in grad school all over again! ;)
Okay, time to stock up on cat food. Miss us!

Date: 2003-10-25 06:03 am (UTC)Sorry I've been so absent...I've fallen back into the pit of Junior High, though it's a lot better being a teacher this time around. I miss you, and I *will* come see you out there. I don't know when, but I will.
Have a great trip. Y'all deserve it!

Date: 2003-10-26 05:51 pm (UTC)Niagra, would we?
Date: 2003-10-25 08:25 am (UTC)Ergo, Niagra Falls was an eventuality.
I _did_ find out I'm not 'large-boat' people.
Good luck.

Date: 2003-10-26 05:52 pm (UTC)Maybe next summer. :) (And you can come, too!)

Date: 2003-10-27 01:18 am (UTC)NF is one of my most favourite places. I love the Journey Behind the Falls, but I'm not sure this was the weekend to be doing that. It's much better when the weather is warm.
Oh, and the Niagara Casino is the only one that I've got a winning history at (I'm up about CDN$65 there). :)

Date: 2003-10-27 05:28 am (UTC)We got one picture of the two of us, but I think the plan is to try to go again next summer, when we can enjoy all of the goofy attractions and stuff (and warmer weather).
Thanks!
