Road Trip - Niagara On The Lake

What is striking about Niagara On The Lake, is the genteel, elegant and stately "Front Porch" ambiance of the small but busy town. One can hear the 'clip clop' of horse drawn carraiges, as you walk through this charming little town, and browse it's cafe's, theatres, winery's and high end shoppes. The town is on the shores of Lake Ontario, and the stately heritage homes are situated along the lakeshore. Many of the homes have been converted into eateries, galleries, and B&B's. A walk through the town is a delight to the senses. The cafe's and bakeries, offer mouthwatering treats, and it is the wine region with the pick of the best of Ontario Wines. I wanted to share the feeling of Niagara - hope you enjoy these pictures, they are but a little taste of this beautiful town!

Those pictures are so lovely... quaint, soothing, and relaxing. The only area that I know of NJ that is similar to that is Cape May. It's very Victorian.
