The Floral Clock...

Another popular tourist spot in Niagara Falls, is the Floral Clock, it is a working clock with literally hundreds if not thousands of flowers on it. Beautiful!!
And in front of the clock is a wishing well with fish in it.
You can sit on the ledge, get your pic taken, enjoy the fish and young and old alike were tossing coins in the water, making wishes!!
You can judge how large it is by the size of the people in the first picture.

Allllll Aboard....

For a 'floral' view of Niagara on the Lake, a small community less than 15 kms, from the falls. This area "takes you back" with its small shops and bakeries, just a pleasure to walk down this street and see all the floral displays. This is my favorite spot around Niagara!!
So grab an ice cream cone, jump on the local "horse and carriage" with me and see the beautiful floral displays that I seen and enjoyed. I have no idea what some of the flowers are called, native to that area I assume!! Pretty!!
