Niagara Falls, NY and Ontario (+43.08,-79.071)

Niagara Falls have been a popular tourist destination since the early 1800’s. The Niagara River is on the boundary between New York and Ontario, running south from Lake Erie toward Lake Ontario. The falls are lighted up at night.  The tourist shops in Niagara Falls, Ontario, are the epitome of souvenir shops.

My grandparents visited in 1935 with their family (B&W photo), and we were visiting there in 1980 (color photos).  Neither of these were honeymoon trips, which were popular in the early days of tourism.
