Ball’s Falls also known as Balls Mills, Louthe Mills and Glen Elgin, is a historical ghost town located in what is now a part of Jordan in the Niagara region, Ontario, Canada, which dates back to the early 19th century.
Unfortunately, because of dry summer and due to lack of autumn rain the Falls are not looking as it should be. However there are a lot of people around walking along the trails and enjoying the quiet and comfortable weather.
The first of December brought to us a nasty weather. Freezing rain made an Art view around. Thanks God it was Sunday and nobody had to drive somewhere to avoid the slippery road conditions and put themselves in danger.

While watching movies about 70s, 60s, 50s, 40s, even 30s all the time questioning myself where do they get so many old cars. Recently I found the answer on Hamilton Old Car Show. There were hundreds of beautiful old cars there. And it is only in one Canadian city. So, would you imagine how many that kind of cars there are around North America.
Niagara Falls is not only beautiful Nature attraction but the small town on a bank of Niagara river right beside of Falls. As the tourist town, it is full of different kind of attractions, souvenir stores, restaurants, cafes, bars, etc. However, among all of the places to get food, there is a really special one and it is Rainforest Cafe.
In tourist season it takes time to stay in the line to get in but it worth to do so. There is a huge aquarium in the foyer with numerous kind of fish and even shark to make the waiting time are not boring. There is a bar where you can take coffee, beer, wine to shorten the waiting.

This cafe influences not only children but adults too. You appear to get in the middle of the jungle with rain, different kind of animals, and noise. Everything is moving and sounds. There are monkeys hanging on the trees, parrots yelling from the branches, panthers hiding in the bushes and even full-size elephant sounds like a trumpet.
Rain Forest
Kids while are stying there forget about food and just running around to watch all these beauties.
It is really fun and something special worth to visit.
Even so I am retired, I have full time job and not much time for my family duties, photography, and other things I like to do, there is one more of my hobbies – to improve the space where I live. It is not really Christmas activities but right now I have some days off to start new project in my house. The basement in my house is the empty space with no any touch of human hands. It is pretty big and can add to our home beautiful livable room. Although for two of us we have enough rooms to live the abandoned basement bothering me a lot. It is just first step to the huge project which is partially done as a Christmas gift for myself.
