Day 2


We've spent a long day driving north today. We left beckley, wv at 8. Wr struggled finding a hotel in niagara that we could afford and not scare us. We took a chance. Found a place with good reviews and cheaper prices (although not cheap for us). Ended up in a place that scared the girls. If it wasn't after 7 when we arrived, we would have left. In fact, the room is good and not too far from the falls. 

On the way to Niagara, we stopped in Pittsburg for a 2 hour excursion. We rode up the Duquesne Incline for great view of the 3 rivers and city.  Here are some pictures. 



We continued our attempt to take pictures at every state welcome center.  Of course, Pennsylvania's WC didn't have a sign. Here's our attempt at coal miners memorial.



We thought that was bad until we got to NY which didn't have one at all. So we took a picture in the travel plaza tunnel in the rain. 


Finally we arrived at Niagara Falls. Wow. Had a great meal at Donatellos. Pizza and Wing combo was the bomb. Steve the owner was worth the stop. 

Ill let someone else blog about our walk in the rain tonight. Here's a taste of the falls.
