I just wanted to let everyone else know that everyone made it here safe and sound. The only person who we hadn't heard from last night was Elizabeth, but that very well may have changed this morning (I'm being a bit of a loner and haven't seen anyone today, haha).

We miss you! And I'm excited to "see" you tonight.

Hope everyone has made it safe. I won't be able to do the Skye thing my computer refuses . But I talk to OH and if you plan something in 2013 I'm in ! Next year I'm afraid will still be a lot of surgeries ,hopefully all healed by 2013.

Can't wait for pictures and all have a great time!!!

Hello all you Daily Puppy travelers! I am Virgilsmama's "Babysister" and we are so jealous! We are of course from Buffalo and the Falls was a natural part of our life growing up. Go to the Canadian side for the best views and drive up the river frontage road in Canada. They won't bite you! The Canadians that is....have a wonderful time and don't lean too far over the railing!

Yay, another WNY'er! I told Virgils momma that I grew up in Hamburg and yes, we went to the falls at least once a year,too, growing up (especially during the winter) and I concur that the river road from the Peace Bridge in Canada is the most scenic route to the falls.

Hope y'all aren't feeling The Bang this morning and have fun today! Stay dry! :mrgreen:

For a sneak peek at the meet up yesterday, you can see a few pics on my Photobucket account:

I haven't titled them or anything, so it will be up to you to figure out who's who!

We're all having a good time. I hear Elizabeth is here, but I haven't seen her yet. We are all going to dinner tonight, but first I do believe there is going to be a Skyping session, but I'm not sure where yet.

Later!

WOW! How exciting to see your photos and the good time you are having together. I have tears in my eyes because I really wish I could have joined you and homesickness never really does go away even when you haven't lived there for so very long. Have a super, super time together! Virgil, Daisy and Scott are glad to have me home and I don't think they will be allowing me to go away again...ever! LOLOLOL! I love that restaurant, is it Table Rock?, right by the Canadian Falls, with the best view. Wish I was there!!!! Yeah Rah!

Thank you for sharing the pictures, Phyrie. Everybody looks like they are having a ball and Gizzie is lapping up all the time and attention he is getting. Give everyone a hug from me. This has been such a great event in the planning and it is so good to see it come together.

Hi all! We are in Brantford now, settled in our hotel getting some much needed rest after a wonderful time with our DP friends :mrgreen: All I can say, is I love this group of people even more after meeting everyone in person!!! Wow, what a wonderful time!!

Brenda, you asked for more photos. I'll oblige :mrgreen: . I have taken a ton of photos and skimmed through them quickly to post a few for you. I'm sure other's will be along to post as they can too! Everyone had their cameras going!

I just have to include a couple of photos that started off our weekend, with Kian arriving on Thursday. We did get to go down and visit my mom and my daughter. Kian wanted to meet them both, and they both wanted to meet her too!

Kian and Sadie. They adored each other, can you tell :mrgreen:

Image

Kian and me. She looks great as always. Me, well, it was 5 AM and I didn't look so great after 5 hours of sleep :roll: :mrgreen: But was thrilled she was there!

Image

This is a photo from the walkway along the river that Baby Sister (Hi there!) was talking about. We had heard about this before coming, and it is gorgeous!!

Image

Our first night dinner at Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville. Angie, Chris, and Kian

Image

Madeline with her balloon hat!

Image

A couple of fireworks photos that turned out well. We were right on the falls and the fireworks were RIGHT THERE. It was beautiful! And many MANY languages being spoken, very cool!

Image

Image

The falls lit up at night.

Image

The view from our room. Deb was right up the street there from the rest of us!

Image

We met Jose and Margie's friend Kim in the parking lot. Then Margie came out after checking in and we got a good group shot! Kian, me, Margie & Jose, and Kris (Kwak).

Image

This is when we were skyping everyone. I got Tracy in the photo! ♥ I wish I had thought to take a photo of each one of you, but we got so caught up in talking to each one of you I forgot to! It was so cool to talk to each one of you and see your dogs too!

Image

Gizzie sitting on RJM's lap. He is SO tiny, and SO adorable!

Image

Jose was worn out. What a sweet, boy he is, SO friendly and SO adorable. And I thought very soft too!

Image

A group photo, some of mine didn't turn out too well. I'm sure other's got some fantastic ones to share!
Margie, Phyrie, RJM (hiding), Kian and Angie.

Image

HO, Margie's friend Kim, Deb, Chris, and Kwak.

Image

I'll let other's post photos before I post any more. We WILL have to do this again :mrgreen:

It looks like you all had such a wonderful time!

With all the snow this past winter, was there any talk of the Falls pumping more water than usual?
