March B-R-E-A-K - days 7 & 8





Never thought we would do it but we did and it was fun. 2 days / one night at a water park and fancy hotel in Niagara Falls. Yes, we saw the falls but only for 5 minutes. The rest of the time was spent at the water park, eating over-priced but fun food, going to see the magician (no hypnosis in the 5 pm show), playing in the arcade, walking the neon strip after dark...

I got some flak from my frugal love for insisting on going into Rainforest Cafe but it was fun and the decor is so over the top! And once there, I kissed a frog and got my prince!!



















Check out the fancy girl and chandelier. And that striped sweater Seb is wearing is mine!!! (and a hand me down from Grandma to boot).

Note the pose that Seb had to adopt to 'drive' the video game at the arcade.


The kids' overall review:
"Five stars, two thumbs up, a million goods" - Seb
"I think we should come every day. We should live here" - Sophie

The parent review:
Pricey but fun and the water park itself was surprisingly trademark-free. It's doable as a day-trip from TO, and worthwhile being there right till it closes. So we will probably do it again within the year!
