Lake Ontario Trek Gets Soaked on the Maid of the Mist
The Lake Ontario Trek enjoyed a gorgeous, sunny day at Niagara Falls. They enjoyed a picnic lunch including some very tasty rotisserie chicken and then biked the trails around Goat Island.
Teen Treks' Director, Cliff Madell, joined the group for the day and gave them some tips about bike mechanics while he was there.
Next, the Trekkers went on the Maid of the Mist boat tour, which takes you right up next to the Falls themselves. Here's the group looking cheerful -- and dry -- before Maid of the Mist:
And here they are afterward, drenched! But still cheerful:
Check out leader Zari's t-shirt. It's hot pink in the first photo, and it gets so soaked it actually looks dark red in the second.
The group is staying at the Niagara Falls Youth Hostel again tonight. Tomorrow, they'll bike up to Jordan, Ontario, for their first night camping out together!
