Friday afternoon, Sheils and I drove to Buffalo in time to pick up my dad from the airport. We spent the evening together (Friday fish fry as mentioned previously) and then went to pick up Seth at the airport late that night. Everyone pretty much crashed after that, but we were all raring to go Saturday morning for a GIANT breakfast!! The following pic is really to show you the massive amounts of food on our table, but you can also notice and appreciate that Seth went authentically Greek with some beef souvlaki and feta scrambled eggs!
After breakfast, we headed across the border to Niagara Falls, Canada. Since the Buffalo/NF area is only a couple hours from Corning, we have made the trip several times but Seth had never been. (Linds, the last time was with you in March 1999!!) So here we are in front of the falls, represented by all that mist!
A shot of the falls:
The game didn’t start until 6 pm so we had some kicking around time in the afternoon. Of course, we arrived at the game super early and managed to take a quick pic to show that Olivia the pig made the trip, too– check out her special BU outfit!!
It was wonderful to get to see Baylor in action– and even better to see them actually win. It’s been a long time since we’ve been 3-1. We’ll see how long the winning record lasts….
Wow, looks like you guys had a blast (glad to see Olivia’s spirit-wear held up). I’m ready to tell you know who he needs to take me on an adventure like this…maybe we’ll just follow your footsteps from Corning to Niagara, maybe even to Buffalo?
Glad you guys had a blast and made it home safe. (I know you say your trip was centered around food, but I think you’ll find you didn’t gain much…just think about all the calories you must have burned while walking, talking and cheering!)
Go BU and better yet, way to go Dawgs! At least we beat a ranked team this time…even if it was in overtime.
