Niagara Falls, Canada

Greetings from Canada! Since we last posted, we've done another 130 miles or so along Lake Erie, then we got into Buffalo, NY and met up with Tomas's college friend Jeremy. Jeremy, who is sporting a brand new Surly, will be riding with us for next two weeks and he also carries a laptop, which will hopefully allow for more frequent blog entries.

Crossing over into Canada was definitely the most exciting highlight of the last three days. We rode over Peace Bridge on our bikes, drawing quite a few looks from the long-distance truck drivers plowing along. But the officials were quite nice to us and were fine with our green Lithuanian passports and Jeremy's driver's license (he left his passport at home). Later today, we will be crossing back into the US a bit further east from here. Let's see how that works out.

We just spent some time looking at Niagara Falls. Very beautiful and the weather is great. But I don't think you need more than an hour here. Unless of course, you are here for gambling, of which there is plenty. And since we're not, we'll be moving along shortly. We've got some pretty nice picture down already; will post those as soon as we sit down for a longer rest break.

Thanks for reading and take care!
