Niagara Falls & the Zoo part 2

Technically, this was my 3rd visit to the falls, but 2nd on the Canadian side. Our visit was much colder this year than last but my mom was so excited to go, I don't think anything would've stopped us. Last year my mom came with me the first week- we arrived Sunday evening and she flew out early Saturday afternoon so there wasn't time to do much sightseeing. And she didn't come at all my trip in March/April, so I already knew a trip to Niagara Falls was in the plans. We picked her up Friday from the airport, so we had the whole weekend to have fun.
 Me and my girls!! Even though she doesn't know the difference, I just had to get Allie out a couple times for just a few seconds because she was there! And I wanted her in the pics too. 
What I didn't get to see last time was Niagara at night. The falls are beautiful all lit up! The picture certainly does not do it justice. We were freezing by this time and super tired when we got back to the apartment but it was worth it for sure!!
The day at the zoo, though sunny, was actually a little cooler. At least there was more bite to the wind, which meant it would've been even colder at the falls. We got to the zoo early afternoon so we didn't get a full day, but we decided to eat out for breakfast and that restaurant was so delicious, so worth it.
We did not have a very restful weekend, but it was fun. And Maggie sure was happy to see her grandma, especially after having to say bye to our boys.
