My favourite time to go to Niagara Falls is in the dead of winter when everything is frozen over, but I don't like the extreme cold. And with Spring approaching, it was now or never, and Saturday was a nice sunny day with temperatures right at freezing. So not too bad.
But weekends are extremely busy there, so we had to park at quite some distance. I had brought three dolls (in boxes) and headed over to where the rainbow was brightest through the mist....

Problem was, the wind was blowing from the east, blowing the mist directly at us. It was actually 'raining'. I had to wipe my camera lens before and after every picture, and there was no way I was going to take my dolls out in the rain. The railings were caked with ice from the freezing mist....
As were all the trees in the 'mist zone'....
...and all the bushes beyond the railings were covered with ice....
The falls themselves were already free of ice. It was March after all.
Olivia was quite impressed....
It was all very beautiful....
The girls were amazed. They'd never seen anything like it.
"Let's go back to table Rock House to see the brink of the falls..."
It was mesmerizing watching the water rush over the brink....
"Don't get too close!! And stay off those railings!!"
"That is an awful lot of water!!"
