Beautiful Day in Newport Harbor - Newport Beach - Orange County - California - Boating


It was a gorgeous day!!  Sky was clear, wind was picking up and the engines were working.  Always a good thing.


As you can see the wind was a little lighter when we started and by the time we were heading back to the slip it had picked up.


We were able to accomplish our goal - so it was a very good day!!  When we were back in the dock slip we found out small craft warning was expected for later in the day.  So glad we got our work done early.

The first photo is of the Pavilion.  I just love taking photos of it.  Ever since high school.

If you ever make it to Newport Beach - I think one of the nicest places to walk is around the perimeter of Balboa Island.  You feel like you have the view of a bayfront  house without spending millions.

Canada! Oh Canada! Niagara Falls - Epic!!!

Image
OMG!!  Niagara Falls is amazing!!  It was awe-inspiring.  There aren't enough words to describe how wonderfully beautiful it is.  I took many many photos but the one posted here is from the window table at the restaurant second level.  Magical.  Canadians are so proud of there falls, and rightly so.  I'm going to try to post a 12 sec video, so I hope it works. If given the opportunity to see this wondrous sight - do it. We were staying in Toronto downtown area, in late December.  Fairmont Royal York Hotel - Loved it. This is a photo of the hotel when we checked in at 11:00 pm.  Helpful hint they have room service at that hour.  Yay!! The hotel is located across the street from the train station and a few blocks from the CN tower. To get to Niagara Falls, we hiked up to the bus terminal and took a megabus to the falls.  It was reasonably priced. We thought this was cute.  Hiking up to bus terminal, here is an early morning photo of an ice rink.
