Summer Family Trip - Day 7
[date uncertain - departed from Rochester (Grandma and Grandpa D's house) and started driving east - we crossed the US-Canada border at the (...) checkpoint - drove east through Ontario until we reached Niagara Falls - it was miserable and rainy but Mom insisted on taking us on a ride aboard the "Maid of the Mist" - we were in the area until late in the day - then crossed back into the US at the (...) checkpoint - from there, we drove east and (I believe) stayed overnight somewhere in New York State]
