Niagara Falls

We had 2 nights in Niagara Falls in a Falls View Room on the 12 th floor of the Hotel, the view was spectacular but it is probably the dearest place to buy food and drink.We went on the Maid of the Mist Boat and I got very,very wet.I hope you enjoy the pictures

Lancaster County

We spent days here in Lancaster County and I'll let the pictures do the talking but the area was just so mind-blowing and the food at the Amish restaurants was very yummy.

Nashville Tennessee

We spent 3 days in Nashville and toured the city including The County Music Hall of Fame and the Rymill Theatre which is called the Mother Church of Country Music.Then we went on another tour which took us into the hills of Nashville and visiting the Jack Daniels Distillery which was very interesting but we couldn't taste or buy any because it is situated in a dry country.
