Stop #1: Niagara Falls

"On our way" from Chicago - or eight hours on a detour - we hit the falls with Pocky in-tow. Though our hotel ended up being fifteen blocks from the falls, next to the gentlemen's club, we had a great time walking Pocky all over Canadian soil (and leaving her mark on a good bit of it). I think the proudest moment of the trip for Rachel was my decision to use an expensive hotel's high-powered sprinkler system to give Pocky a bath on her back end. We also took a day trip to visit Toronto, where we ate at a great Quebecois restaurant and shopped in crazy international markets to find Rachel the perfect cheese. Of course, I let her know that she was my perfect cheese.
