Last Call

Using the hotel coupon booked picked up at the Canadian welcome center; we located our motel for the night. We called in reservations at the Passport Inn, to insure we had a place to lay our heads after the game. The coupon touted walking to the falls and free WiFi. We arrived and as we approached the office to check in the phone by the door rang. The owner lives in one of the units, saw us coming on a camera and called us to let her know she was her way. We checked in just after the lights were turned out for the night at the falls…but we still ventured around town to see what the hype was all about. By the way, we were about 2 miles from the falls…there was no way we were walking! The place was a ghost town, until we got the Clifton Hill – the “Time Square” of Niagara Falls Ontario. We found a spot to watch ESPN to catch highlights of the game. The down side being in Canada they have ESPN Canada. Woman’s boxing was on the big screen, rather than baseball highlights. We promptly asked for the channel to be changed to FSN where we caught up on our baseball from the night’s games.





Once back at the Passport Inn, we opted to sleep in our sleeping bags…the place was about as filthy as you could imagine. We charged up all of our electronics and watched some more baseball highlights before turning in for the night. The WiFi connection dropped as I attempted to post our Wisconsin blogs…so they won’t get up until later today…sorry folks.

Niagara recap – Ontario side is far superior to the New York side. There is no shortage of vacancies in the local motels – almost all of which are far superior to the Passport Inn. There is something to do for everyone. Bring your wallet, there is little to do without spending some Canadian currency. Well worth the trip at some point in your life…we plan to return with our wives...but plan to opt for a motel upgrade.


Peace – Izzy
