Niagara on the Lake












We visited Niagara on the Lake today. It a pretty little touristy town. Lots of flowers and shops. We saw some really awesome animal prints at one shop that were painted by a local artist. I bought a pretty little dragonfly wind chime. We had lunch out of our cooler today then we drove over the The Queens Park to look at Lake Ontario. We sat for a while enjoying the view. Jacob and I took a walk on a little trail by the water. There will be more pictures of Jacob in this post because Anthony wouldn't go with us :( After the trail we saw a dog that looked just like Diesel with a little bit shorter hair. The owners said he was part lab but they didn't know what else. His name is Mack, like the truck ;) Wish I had thought to take a picture of him! Don't think the owners believed us until Anthony showed them a picture of Diesel on his phone.




We drove to Hamilton after the park. The route was suppose to take us along the lake but we really didn't see much of it but glimpses :( Hamilton is a very industrial town, not very pretty. But they do have a little area on the lake that is nice and its pretty there. Took the boys to an indoor go cart place. They both seemed to enjoy that. No pool here so they are kind of bummed about that. Had dinner at this little place by the lake called Hutch's. The food was okay, kind of a Parkette with fish. They had something listed called ice cream wafers, while they last so Jacob asked about them. Sounded like and ice cream sandwich to him so he ordered it. Turned out to be a box of just the wafers. So we ordered ice cream and made our own sandwiches!
