| LO Group Leaving the Niagara Falls Youth Hostel | 
Today we had a delayed start because we had to stop by the 
bike shop to fix Jake's bike. While we were waiting the group explored Queen St 
in downtown Niagara Falls, Ontario. Stephanie bought some amazing bread from the 
local bakery that we ate for lunch. We also picked up some delicious locally 
grown yellow plums at a farm stand. We traveled on down the road to the Welland 
Canal Museum in St. Catherines where we learned all about the big lake 
freighters that go up and down the canal. It was a hilly ride right at the end 
of the day when we rode the last mile into the campground.  Tonight we're 
camping at the Balls Falls Conservation Area. After a sloppy joe dinner spearheaded by chef Kyle the 
group went to explore the waterfall and waded in the river.
