At last, we arrived at the final stop of this trip — Niagara Falls.

Early in the morning, we drove from our hotel toward the Falls. Several kilometers away, we could already see a massive column of mist spiraling upward from the direction of the falls, accompanied by the faint roar of water — the atmosphere was perfectly set. We arrived around 10 a.m. Though it was a weekend, we were still early enough to find a few empty spots in Parking Lot 1 (P1 on the map), closest to the Visitor Center.
