I should admit that I only did the boat ride on my third run at Niagara,- because I was afraid that my camera would get soaked....

Anyway, I was coerced that time, because they already bought the ticket for me, and so I joined half-heartedly...

But I should admit that it was a very good experience,- one that I would not miss for the world. Next time (hopefully next year), I would still take that ride...

BTT: Should look familiar to you...

And this one, in a much earlier trip at a farm in Warwick....

At least you got to do the fun stuff at Niagara Falls. We couldn't because my mother in law was with us and she's already in her 80's. We had to be careful she didn't over-exert herself.

We spent six years in NY. Of all that time, we went to NYC only four times. Three of them were on Philippine Embassy business.

NYC is at least a six-hour drive from home. So, we didn't go there often. But, yup. Another cliched thing to do in NYC is take photos of Times Square. Silly me forgot my DSLR in the car. So, I had to make do with my Android tablet.

There was construction going on outside the PH Embassy.....

One gripe I had with the PH embassy is the lack of chairs for clients...... Grrr.

Yup. I wanted to capture more of the electronic billboards.

The vertical orientation of the tablet came in handy because it was ideal for instances where there are tall buildings. It captured the feeling we were getting at the moment.

I took the photo mid-afternoon when the buildings casted shadows on the street. Soon after, we were in a mad rush to get out of Manhattan, trying to avoid getting mired in rush hour traffic*. We made it just barely and drove down to New Jersey where we were staying with friends.

*I also forgot to gas up that morning. My Sonata had 1/8 tank of gas left. He He. We were close to running on fumes when we finally pulled up to a gas station along the New Jersey Turnpike.
