Last Day of Niagara Falls Update

School lets out next week for Southern Utah University and I am graduating with my Bachelors in Science in Communication Studies. I am also thinking of a trip to take to Niagara Falls, New York for a treat because I am craving White Pizza. You need to try this in your life it is so so good, with dripping garlic sauce and cheese and tomato slices mmmm good. Also all the other food that I have mentioned before. Just to remind you famous buffalo wings made in the heart of Buffalo, New York which is really close to Niagara Falls, New York. Also you have to try New York's finest Canoli's they are fried creamy in the middle delight. If you don't know what this is just think of a fried taco shell with butter cream squirted in the middle of both sides. It is delicious if you are craving something creamy and buttery with a crunch. And don't forget to get your red hots or white hots. These are huge hot dogs that are red or white. I had both and they are really good and worth trying. So keep a look out for those hot dog stands. Well don't leave New York yet with out trying there famous Fish Fry Friday's. At almost every catholic church they are frying up huge long fish with home fries which are fried chunks of potatoes. And you have to try a Garbage Plate if you are into that. Its macaroni salad and home fries cover with a burger and all the toppings without the bun. Its delicious. I can't wait to go and try these and have even more mouth watering experiences.

More about Niagara Falls History

Did you know?

The depth of Niagara Falls history is a surprise to many visitors. The photogenic Falls and many beautiful pruned Niagara Falls parks, belie the fact that the area was the scene of one of the most famous battles of the War of 1812 – a major turning point in Canadian history. Or that it was a significant stop on the Underground Railroad during the 19th Century.

Niagara historic sites abound – particularly Forts from the 18th and 19th centuries. See musket-firing demonstrations at Old Fort Niagara; visit Old Fort Erie, the first fort built by the British in the late 1700s and scene of one of Canada’s most horrific battles in the War of 1812; see the British headquarters during the War at Fort George; and much more.

Have you ever had New York Pizza?

I have been to some of New York's hole in the wall restaurants, and believe me they have some of the best hand tossed pizza. The slices are a dollar and they are as big as a dinner plate with cheese dipping down and pepperoni so delicious and crisp. And to go with your pizza try those famous buffalo wings made in the heart of Buffalo, New York which is really close to Niagara Falls, New York. That is a tradition that once a week families in New York buy on pizza night. Also you have to try New York's finiest Canoli's they are fried creamy in the middle delight. If you don't know what this is just think of a fried taco shell with butter cream squirted in the middle of both sides. It is delicious if you are craving something creamy and buttery with a crunch. And don't forget to get your red hots or white hots. These are huge hot dogs that are red or white. I had both and they are really good and worth trying. So keep a look out for those hot dog stands. Well don't leave New York yet with out trying there famous Fish Fry Friday's.

Going Back Soon

When I go back to New York I want to take my boyfriend which by that time he will be my husband. I would also like to take my brother and my sister if they are chill. I want to eat buffalo wings at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York. I want to get passports so we can see the whole effect of Niagara Falls on the American side as well as the canadian side. I also want to get drench by the falls by going on the maid of the mist. These are things that I could not do on my Mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I would love to do these things and share them with my family.

Rainbows on Niagara Falls

When the sunlight meets the mist of the American Falls and the Horseshoe Falls, glittering bands of color emerge as a rainbow. I have seen these amazing rainbows on a nice sunny day in beautiful New York fall season. It so cool because you get to feel the mist come onto your face as you are walking to see the falls. Its cool to feel the falls before you even see them. What a wonder to see.
