It's just amazing how large it is. When I moved from Washington State to New York, we made the drive instead of flying and shipping stuff. We decided to take our time and stop at anything remotely interesting along the way. Anyways, prior to the trip I thought Mount Rushmore would be the neatest stop, and it ended up being unimpressive and kinda lame honestly. I didnt think anything of Niagara Falls, and was just totally blown away at how awesome it was.
Anyways, if you ever go to Niagara Falls you MUST do "The Cave of Winds". They will try and sell you a 5 pack deal which includes 1. maid of the mist, 2. movie, 3. Cave of winds. 4. history museum, and 5. Aquarium. Everything but the Cave of Winds and Maid of the Mist are really awful. The Aquarium is about the shittest one I've ever been too, and I love aquariums. The Cave of winds you take a elevator down to the base of the falls, and they have this whole deck structure where you can walk right up to the falls. They have this one area called thunder deck where the falls are literally falling on the deck and you can stand in it. It's really neat.

Yep... those are great pics. and it is even more sweet seeing it in real life. There is even this really sweet statue of Nikola Tesla near the falls on the US side. Granted most people probably wouldnt care about this, however he is my favorite Electrical Engineer so im biased. Here is a picture of the cave of winds
