8/30/11





We left camp and drove north to Barcelona, New York, so we could drive Hwy. 5 which runs by the shore of Lake Erie. This was a really pretty drive with houses along the edge of the lake. Highway 5 took us right through Buffalo, New York. We got a site to camp at Cinderella Motel and Campground on Grand Island, New York. This island has the Niagara River running around it. We got set up and then drove to Niagara Falls. We took pictures of American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls from the edge and then from an observation deck. Afterward we walked over a couple of bridges above the Niagara River to Goat Island and took pictures of Horseshoe Falls.

While driving into Buffalo we saw Pearl Street Brewery so we went back into Buffalo and had dinner there. They had about 10 different beers that they make there on tap. I had half chocolate stout and half raspberry stout. It was really good. Jim had double IPA. The food was really good also. This place is in an old building downtown and it is four stories tall. You can rent the third or fourth floor for events. The first and second is the restaurant and bar. From the front balcony you can see downtown and from the back one you can see the Niagara River. The lower level has a deli. We really enjoyed this brewpub. About a mile from the RV park there was another VFW hall so we stopped there, too.
