It's 4 am, and Daisy has had me up for an hour. She is finally asleep in her crate (she entered it voluntarily), and I am listening to the roar of the Falls through my open window. Now that the tourists are all in bed (except me), I can hear the falls and the sound is beautiful and peaceful. I could go back to sleep but I think I'll take Daisy for a walk while there is no one else out and about.
The pictures in this post are from last night--Daisy in our room and ipctures of the Falls through our window as sunset approaches.
This blog is called Travels with Daisy so I should say a few words about traveling with her. For the most part she has been very good, barking only at sudden noises in hotel roomo (e.g., doors slamming in hallway) and at any motorcycle she hears (not sure why she hates them so much0. Despite her utter lack of training (yes, I know that is my fault), she has walked fairly well...until last night. We went out just after 7, and there were still a lot of people out and about. But that wasn't the problem. The pigeons and squirrels completely distracted her and she pulled the entire 45 minutes we were out. I couldn't get her attention even with a treat! Clearly we need to work on this, and we shall.
After our early morning walk, I plan a nap then a drive to Niagara on the Lake and other places in the area. We'll come back mid afternoon for another nap (I hope!) before another long walk along the Falls in this area. Till then, enjoy the pics!
