Day 27 Niagara Falls, Canada

The wettest day of the trip so far,but that was only because we went on a boat 'Maid on the Mist' that takes you close enough to the Niagara Falls to get you totally drenched.It was great fun though and luckily the waterproofs they provide keep you fairly dry.We had intended to also do the 'Trip Behind The Falls' but the queue was abit long so we decided against it.In the afternoon we had a look around the grounds of the casino and the few shops they have there although they looked very expensive.Suprisingly we then had the first light shower of rain in a few weeks and headed back to the hostel.Later in the evening after a heavy rainfall and thunderstorm had passed we found a bar to get some food and also a pool table so i could beat simon AGAIN.I decided on something not to spectacular in spaghetti and meatballs and ive never seen a plate so big in my life,it was piled so high with food.The barman even said if you manage to eat that then you certainly have my respect.Well the challenge was on and after awhile the plate was clean but shit did i feel ill afterwards.It was about 3 hours later before i stopped feeling bloated.Back at the hostel i was told i had company tonight after spending the night before on my own in a 5 bed room,but the people i met were a very nice friendly american couple who i spent awhile getting to know.
