Niagara Falls

The conference wrapped up Sunday morning and we said all our good-byes.  At 12 noon Team Toba did not have a rental vehicle (due to many different factors) and so our plans to head down to Niagara Falls seemed to be slipping from our grasp. . .but by 12:15 we were somehow off and on our way!  Drina was the trooper, driving through Toronto traffic and construction and we made it to the Falls, as well as stopping by the Butterfly Conservatory.

We are pictured in front of the Canadian Falls (left - right:  Nadine, Drina, myself, Elvira & Tricia).  Thankfully Ronnie (a consultant from Fonthill) became our unofficial tour guide for the afternoon!  The second picture shows the Maid in the Mist boat as well as the American Falls in the back left.  We had beautiful weather to enjoy the day - warm sun shining down and the cool mist coming from the Falls.

Before returning to the airport and flying back home, we made one last stop which was at the Butterfly Conservatory.  We only had about 1/2 hour, but I was in heaven!  It was hard to pick just one picture because these creatures are just so beautiful.  So that was my weekend in Toronto - crazy busy and somehow relaxing at the same time!
