Like most adventures, ours started on the airplane. Where the MOMENT we hit cruising altitude, the person in front of me on each flight would inevitably crank their seat back and leave it in its non-upright position for the duration of the flight. What is WITH me and my luck in this arena? The seat cranking was followed closely by the captain's announcement detailing in full the delicious breakfast being served on the other side of the first class curtain. Like it would have been so impossible to just tell the eight people within earshot?
We flew into Rochester, where Noah and I had our first conversation about getting around. It went a lot like this...
Me: So, you Mapquested the directions to the hotel?
Noah: No.
Me: For reals, you didn't?
Noah: Yeah.
Not a big deal, after an unsettled glance from the Enterprise guy, we eventually made it to Niagara Falls, where we had our first conversation about accommodations.
Me: So, where are we staying?
Noah: In Canada.
Me: For reals, we are?
Noah: Yeah.
And it's a GOOD THING. Canada is so much more hip than the United States. They have their side of the falls thing DOWN. We saw the Falls, got drenched on the Maid of the Mist (which, from Noah's priceless grin, you can tell he enjoyed immensely more than I), and met a sweet couple celebrating their 50th anniversary - they had honeymooned there and come back every year since. So sweet.
Also, to commemorate Noah's first visit to Canada, we took a picture with a "real" Canadian Mounty. Which I kept confusing with "bounty hunters." Tell me, what's not to confuse about the two?

Hey sweet! I'm glad you guys made it back safe and had a great time!
Well, I must say that any blog entry that features Dog the Bounty Hunter is OK in my books!
You know, I can see how a Mounty and a bounty hunter would be confused. Is all in the muscular upper body and gigant belt buckles.
Lane and I went to Niagara over the weekend, it was such a blast!! I asked Lane if he had seen your blog since you two just went there. Congrats on the year mark... that is awesome!
