Apart from the tackiness of the whole area, the sheer scale and power of the falls were immediately apparent - and mind-blowing...
..and photos don't really do it justice.
We'd decided to do two specific things during our limited time - first off, a trip on Maid of the Mist for the best view of the falls, particularly the Horseshoe Falls, without going to the Canadian side.
Also a great view of the American and Bridal Veil falls, including the boardwalk we were planning to do later.
So after a bite of lunch we headed for Cave of the Winds (cave not included), which is a boardwalk right under the Bridal Veil Falls, which we had previously ridiculed for their patheticness compared to American and Horseshoe. But it was rather impressive, close up.
Suitably awed...
..we jumped back in the cars and made the 2½-hour drive back to the lake for another fun evening of eating, drinking and games.
