transfer to Oakville for Visit to the Falls!!



Just like the schedule suggested, we set off from Oshawa on the 'GO TRAIN' which took us from Oshawa to Oakville. It involved a change of train in Toronto where we were met by Caroline's cousin Warren. With only a couple of minutes to spare, we found him (or he found us) and we boarded the waiting train and made our way across to Oakville.
Sun started to shine once arrived and were taken to the Lake (Ontario) for a distant view of Toronto.
The plans were then set for our trip the following day to get to Niagara Falls and see the sights.
The following morning we awoke to the sight of rain falling. The rain got worse as Warren drove around the Lake toward the Falls.
We were not to be distracted by the heavy rain fall. Equipped with as much wet weather kit as we could put on, we set off to soak up the sights...(literally).
After 30 minutes we were well and truely soaked and made our way to the ticket office to get to walk 'behind the falls'.
The sun only peeped through for a few seconds, before more rain fell.
Its now bags packed again this evening and we are heading into Toronto centre for an overnight stay at hotel and theatre, before heading out on our train ride to Jasper on the Via Canada.
