Travel: Niagara Falls Attractions - White Water Walk Along The Rapids. Really, Really Fast Rapids.

I had no idea that the attractions at Niagara Falls would be so good.

Not to set your expectations too high, but Niagara Falls is a real life Disney World.

When you go down to Disney World in Florida, you go into manufactured reality. At Niagara Falls, you are actually seeing the real thing.

The Niagara Falls Adventure Pass combines a number of attractions together, so you can save money. I bought this pass online, before heading up to Niagara Falls, and after using it, I feel that it is a good deal.

The first attraction we went to was the White Water Walk.

It's explained this way in tourist talk:
Take a walk along a boardwalk at the very edge of one of the world's wildest stretches of whitewater! Marvel at the relentless power and beauty of nature; see how the Great Gorge was created.
the walk was really fun, and we were there during the Fall season, so the colors were really beautiful.

Here's a video to give you a feel for the power of the rapids:
