Wine Tasting & Niagara on the Lake

Hi Everyone!

This is one of my last posts that has to do with my trip to New York and Canada. I am going to share with you the pictures and what I did while in Canada: Wine Tasting and Niagara on the Lake.

Let's Get Started!


This may not be in Niagara but is was on our way to Niagara we made a stop in Syracuse and saw this lovely building outside of where we stopped to eat; Chipolte. I am assuming it is a cathedral of some type but maybe I am entirely wrong I don't know.

Wine Tasting!




On the Wine Tasting tour we went around the Vineyard and where told all about how they make there wine which actually is pretty cool and then we got to taste some of there wine. I am a big white wine fan. The picture above is an ice wine and it is unbelievable sweet I think that is as much as I could drink of it in one night!


Anyone up for tea time?


I believe this was the house of some artist but I could be completely wrong but I just thought the house was pretty and my mother and I took a picture in front of it. 







We stopped at a little pub and I got a great wrap, it was so good and the fries were also great! And that was the first drink that I have ever actually ordered in a restaurant. It was kind of cool. 



All around the little shops and boutiques there were bright and fun flowers which were beautiful and my little cousin picked me a few. 

I know that was extremely short and mainly just pictures but I thought that I would just share the rest of my trip to Canada and what I did and where I went!

Thank you so much for taking a look and reading!

Getting Around Niagara Falls

Hi Everyone!

Today I am doing another post on my trip to New York/Canada trip and today I am going to be showing you my trip to Niagara Falls.

Let's Get Started!


My trip started out by being greeted by this little lady. This is my adorable little cousin who is five and she seriously is the cutest thing, is she not? Obviously since she lives in Canada I do not get to see her as often as I would like so getting to spend time with her was the best part of the trip. 


We stayed at a Casino hotel that was right by the falls it was literally out our window. There was a giant fountain in  the hotel which obviously I threw a penny and made a wish in. I also thought this light fixture in the lobby was cool so I took a picture. 


My cousins Grandma was so nice, at this hotel she get's free rooms and she let us use it for the night and we stayed on the very top floor! It was amazing and the room was so nice. I can't thank her enough for that because it really was very cool. Also they have no 4 floors like no floor 4, 14, 24, and 34 if anyone knows why please let me know down below!


These above photos were the view from are room! 


These next few photos are just landscaping and fountains that were around our hotel.


Niagara Falls!







Seeing as I am only 20 I took it as my opportunity to actually order a drink while at a restaurant in Canada. This was my Cosmopolitan at a cute little outdoor place right by the falls. 


Katie, my cousin, flew back to Minnesota with us and she spent a few days with us before her mom joined us and then flew back. Look how cute she is and think we had enough luggage? The flight was not good though only me and Katie got home that night and my mom had to wait until the next day because they screwed up our flights.
