Happy Birthday Shannon.

img_7173.jpg We spent the day visiting the Aquarium, Geology Center. We started the night at dinner, then Ripley’s Museum. And ended the night with a trip to the Falls View Casino.

It was a great day with an even better night.

Here are some pics.

A wet day in Niagara

img_0197.jpg Despite the poor weather we still had a great time. We walked round town for a minute then took a ride on the Niagara Ferris Wheel. It had such a great view!

We dashed over to the Imax theater to see the Daredevil exhibit and catch a movie. The exhibit was a bunch of “vessels” that people used to go over the falls. It definitely was a great display. The Imax movie was very entertaining and informative.

Here are some pics.

Another trip to the AMNH – 50mm

We took another trip to the American Museum of Natural History. We braved the terrible weather and were well rewarded. Matt shot it with a 50mm lens, this is only worth mentioning because he shot it with a 15mm fisheye last time. It’s a nice contrast.

Vacation 2006 – Chicago and Niagara Falls

We spent a week in Chicago and 4 days at Niagara Falls. During our stay in Chicago we attended the Taste of Chicago festival and the Naperville Ribfest. It was a great time, even the second time around. Niagara was equally exciting. Cave of the Winds, Journey Behind the Falls, Maid of the Mist and so much more.I don’t plan on separating the pics out into their individual days but I wanted to.

Here are a few pics.

American Museum of Natural History, NYC – 15mm Fisheye

We ventured into NYC today to visit the Museum of Natural History. It has a great space center and mineral collection, as well as your standard museum relics. Instead of walking from the PATH we took the subway and it was very exciting. Everyone should make the trip!

Here are some pictures.
