On the road

We have made it through two loooong days of driving! The first day we drove about seven hours to Niagra falls. We set up our camp in a camp ground which was right on Lake Ontario. I have to admit that I was a little nervous about the whole camping thing. My family has probably been on a handful of camping trips... All of them had showers and pools! When Ian first set up our tent I thought maybe we should turn around... But I was pleasantly surprised. It was actually really cozy and not hot at all( I pictured myself sweating in there all night) 

After we set up camp we went to go check out the falls. I had never been so I was really excited to see what it was all about. We decided to bring our passports and walk over a bridge into the Canadian side to see them. it was totally worth it!! The view was so much better and the Canadian side is a lot nicer. 

We woke up bright and early this morning and drove about 9 hours to Chicago! We are staying just outside the city to save money...however we are staying in a hotel! We plan to spend the whole day tomorrow exploring the city and then watch the hockey game at a bar somewhere... Ian will fit right in because he is rooting against the bruins. 

So far so good... I am already loving it and can't wait to see more of the country!
