Niagara On the Lake, Canada
Since I had the summer off of work, I decided to take advantage of time off, cheap airfare, the fact Gabriella can fly for free, and Noni & Popi's (my parents) townhouse. Since Kad had just taken time off for our family trip to Florida, he stayed home to work. Gabriella and I flew by ourselves from Atlanta to Buffalo. She flew great both ways! I tried scheduling the flights during 'sleep' time, hoping she'd sleep-not a good idea. No sleep, but she was entertained...and entertaining! She made lots and lots of friends at the airport and on the plane. I really couldn't have asked for her to be better behaved-thank God. Anyways, Noni & Popi picked us up from the airport, where we drove across the border into Niagara on the Lake, Canada. The town is so beautiful, so quaint...and the main street is 5 blocks from the townhouse. So, we walked into town almost daily. The weather was around 70-75 degrees- a wonderful break from 100 degree Hotlanta! We walked a lot, went to a couple of parks, went shopping, ate out, visited a couple of small towns, went for drives, and got to see lots of family. We had a great, relaxing time.
She thought she would hold Noni's hand while in the stroller...the whole time we walked through one town- it was SO sweet.
Still holding hands...in NY
