Day 3 Gerry's Birthday!


Tuesday was Gerry's 55th birthday! Here he is up and ready to start the day! We went to our favorite breakfast place here in Niagara Falls called Scoops. Gerry ordered steak and eggs as his birthday breakfast.



We went shopping after breakfast at the Outlet Mall. We got some great deals! Gerry got some new Tommy Hilfiger workout shorts. I found a new winter leather jacket at Danier Leather and some Reebok running shoes and some cute little outfits from La Vie En Rose. I took such a long time shopping but Gerry was very patient...believe me, he is very patient. When we got back to our room, this is what we saw on our bed. Our housekeeper had made swans with our towels and placed them on our bed. Isn't that so so cute? :-)



Gerry had a little rest while I blogged and then I suggested that we go to the Skylon Tower for his birthday supper. We took an glass elevator to the top of the tower and ate at the Summit Buffet Restaurant which is 775 feet above the Falls. It was spectacular and the food was awesome!




We made reservations for 6:30pm and when we got there, we were happy to see that we had a window table and this is the first thing that we saw....a full view of the Canadian horseshoe falls....wow!



And also the American Falls along with the Bridal Veil Falls next to them. What a beautiful sight!



Our waitress took our picture with the falls behind us. What an experience! Being 775 feet up in the air is awesome!



The restaurant was so nice and the buffet was delicious!





Here`s the gorgeous 55 year old birthday boy!



After our meal, we went up to the Observation Deck above the restaurant.




Here is the Courtyard Marriot, our hotel, from the Observation Deck. We can even see our car. :-)



This is the Sky Wheel which we can see from our hotel balcony, seen from the Observation Deck.
