Then east to Belleville for two nights staying in an excellent Holiday Inn Express and dining in neighbouring Linguines's restaurant. I went there to visit Del Gatto winery in Prince Edward County. Pat Del Gatto is the only Pinotage grower/maker on Canada's East Coast and he makes a darn fine Pinotage which quickly sells out. (see report here.)
Holiday Inn Niagara Falls. You can see the Falls when you exit the hotel (on left by the sign). The Falls are 3 minues walk down the road n the left |
Then back west to stay in Niagara Falls. It was cold and rained most of the time.

Rainbow Bridge between Canada and the USA |
In 2014 I'd stayed in the Crowne Plaza with a room overlooking Rainbow Bridge and saw the bridge often jammed all the way across with cars queueing to cross into the USA.
On Monday 30 October there was no delay. We were directed to park the car and go into an office to see an immigration officer and pay $6 each and we were off to change the Canadian registered Toyota Corolla car for a US Kia Forte at the Hertz office in Niagara.
Then off to the Poconos via Finger Lakes
