@@NOT_NOW777 hello friend! Nice of you to stop by…hope all is good with you. Thanks so much it’s a beautiful place to visit and right next to the United States. Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
I used to cross the Peace bridge when driving from Boston, passing through Buffalo, when driving to and from Niagara Falls and Hamilton to visit my grandparents. It was always an easy cross 30 years ago. Great video!
Thank you! Someone told me there’s a wait at the bridge a lot of the time now. I’ll try to go back again. It’s nice that you have those memories of taking the drive to visit your Grandparents. Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
Hi Christine, Great live from Sunday in Fort Erie. I had to leave early however caught the replay earlier today. I was right when you asked me on IG to guess you are streaming. I was right. 😊. Thank you for sharing as I was there a couple of weeks ago. Concert was great and we are planning on sticking around in Niagara for a couple of days more. 👍. Have a great week and take care. BTW, I have been to Buffalo to see The Maple Leafs vs Buffalo Sabres and Buffalo Bills to. I love the Buffalo skyline at night expeciallly from our Hotel on Fallsview Blvd on a clear night. 👍🌊😊
Hi Mark. No worries, I appreciate you taking time to be there when you can. I’ll be back again to try going across for a walk soon. Yes the skyline of Buffalo looks really nice. I have seen it at night from the same area and it is really beautiful! Have a good rest of the week in the falls. 😊🇨🇦
Sorry for missing your recent lives and premieres Christine, but I have been up to my eyeballs in various house projects that we had to put off for over tge last 2 years. Too bad you had to delay your trip to Buffalo but I am sure you will find a day when the traffic on the bridge is lighter. Been many many years since I have driven to Buffalo. Brings back many fond and sad memories ofwhen I used to drive over to watch the Bills football games with a good friend and had bone chilling tailgate parties at the stadium's parking lot before the games! Unfortunately our friend has passed on, so it is bittersweet recalling our trips to Buffalo. Great weather you had though and I hope you will get that again when you finally get across! ❤🙏👍🇨🇦
Lol John I understand how that goes…about 2 years ago we did Reno’s and it was weeks of construction. I hope things are going well with your house and I’m sure it will look so nice when it’s all done. I’m sorry about your friend and I’m glad you have good memories of visiting Buffalo with them, sounds like you had a lot of fun times! It was a beautiful day yesterday, I’m so glad I went for the walk and I will try again soon to go across to Buffalo. Thanks for coming along. Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
Nice walk Christine! Sorry your plans to go to Buffalo didn't work out. The American entry on the Peace Bridge has been very frustrating since Covid. They routinely only have one or two passenger car booths open. Several times on recent visits the wait to get back to the USA has been 30 minutes or more and that was at 9pm or later on a weekday! In the past crossing at that time would mean no wait. Luckily, on my most recent visit earlier this month the wait was only a few minutes but that was after 10pm. In my over 50 years of crosing over the Peace Bridge and going through Buffalo I don't think I have ever stepped foot in the city of Buffalo, lol. I just drive past it to get to Canada or to get home to Ohio. Buffalo does have a lot of nice old buildings and I've heard about Canalside for many years and it looks really nice. I just have never been motivated enough to actually visit there. I look forward to your visit there if the traffic on the bridge allows it. As dirtweed mentioned, that round structure is the water pumping station. We have one in Cleveland out in Lake Erie. We call it the water intake crib. It sucks in the lake water and pumps it to the water treatment plant, which then sends the water to our homes for drinking and washing. I think those balloon looking things on the wires are so that low flying aircraft/helicopters know there are wires there. Otherwise the wires are not easily visible. That little parking lot right next to the high wire tower and by Southsides Grill is always my first stop after crossing over the Peace Bridge. I always take a photo of the bridge and if the weather is nice, take the top down on my Jeep. I've always wanted to eat at the Southsides patio but I always arrive too early and they are never open. Thanks again for the video, I enjoyed it! Have a great week 🙂🇨🇦
@@ThomasC-Crazy4NiagaraFalls thank you ! I was surprised the bridge was so delayed and I’m glad you told me your experiences crossing…it sounds like it’s busy there a lot of the time. I also thought I could cross at the Rainbow bridge and drive down from there. I’ll also check the border wait times next time lol. I wasn’t thinking today… I was just excited to go explore. Thanks for telling me about the pump station and the hydro wires. I look forward to visiting Buffalo. Thanks for coming along for the walk. Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
Joysie thank you! It’s was nice having you there along for the walk. Hopefully soon when I go across it will be much better on the bridge. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I did too! Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
Hi, Christine. I've lost my audio on my laptop. I'm working on getting it back. My phone overheated earlier today, so I had to turn it off. I'm looking forward to watching WHILE listening to your livestream on the replay. lol
Oh no! I hope you have the audio back now. Thanks so much for taking time to watch the replay. It was a nice day to be out by the lake. Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
Sorry I missed your stream :(. I used to go over to Buffalo every year to do our christmas shopping back in the day lol. It was way cheaper to go over there to do it then stay here. Sad but true. Miss those days. When you go, you need to grab a delicious Dunkin Donuts coffee ;). its better then Tims >
Hi! It was quite popular to go shopping in the states wasn’t it. Good times! How things have changed. I will Google Dunkin Donuts to see if there. Is one close to where I’ll be walking and I will for sure go or it a try. Thanks for letting me know. Have a great week. 😊🇨🇦
