Foreign land? LMAO!!!! Dude, it's Canada! It isn't like you went to Japan or something, LOL!

I've been to Niagara Falls, Ontario many times; went over to NY once, won't do it again!
Am I the only one here who is just as fascinated with the camera drone as the scenery?

Niagara Falls Ontario isn't exactly a good representation of Ontario though, a lot of that area is pretty run down. Drive further into Ontario and it's much nicer, the homes are newer, roads are better kept, etc. I visit Niagara Falls a lot, and there are a lot of fun things to do, but I'm also always quite amazed at how poorly maintained that city is, and how scummy some of the homes look in the area. I'd never feel safe living there.

VERY nice!
We were at the NY side for a day and half and enjoyed the falls. Did not go over to the "foreign"
land but will next time if time allows.

The parts that tourists see is very nice; but there are several neighbourhoods in that city that look quite un-Canadian; almost Detroit-like.
I don't think crime is any more a problem there than in other Canadian cities, though: It just looks it!

The view is much better on our side, Bill.

Bill, about 8 miles from me here is a little town called Wheatley, ON. I lived there for 30 yrs.
They have a little industry there called HIKE METAL PRODUCTS .
I'm quite sure the "MAID of the MIST" you traveled on was made there.

Actually I didn't misunderstand you, I know you meant that the Canadian side was better maintained, and I was saying that even still, it looks pretty ragged compared to other areas of Ontario. IMO, both sides of Niagara Falls could use some TLC! Considering how much money flows into those towns you would think they could put some it back into the community.

I just think those relatively inexpensive drones are amazing.
I am really considering buying one to see how I can program it using sensor input to let it fly by itself. I have started fiddling with the code in an emulator. Just have not pulled the trigger.

When I go to Mississauga , I take the Peace Bridge,because the border crossing is faster. Right after the border, the road is lined with vineyards and greenhouses. In early July, the GHs dont look to be used.
