Monday 24 May 2010 – Back to the Fun.




On the move today, was our first hotel change and move from one area to another area, leaving Toronto and setting off for Welland near Niagara Falls on the south side of Lake Ontario. We are specifically avoiding peeking at the Niagara Falls until my daughter Christine joins us.
Dundas, Hamilton was our first stop to break up the journey. We left the beaten track to explore Spenser Gorge, a lovely area of forests and waterfalls. A 5km hike through the woodlands led us to a lovely scenic lookout at Dundas Peak with a gorgeous view of the gorge and valley below. The gorge is graced by 2 beautiful waterfalls, Tew Falls which is 52m high and Webster Falls. The waterfalls are fed by a stream which runs through a beautiful park where families were having picnics or barbeques and wading in the stream. We soon joined in this activity as a welcome relief from the sweltering heat of the day.
