area last friday, i decided to hop on the highest-rated niagara tour (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g155019-d1465440-Reviews-Chariots_of_Fire_Ltd-Toronto_Ontario.html\" target=\"_blank\">according to tripadvisor<\/a>), <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chariots-of-fire.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">chariots of fire<\/a>. i was warned to bring an extra set of clothes to change into in case i got soaked during the boat ride, but indeed as the name would hint at, it&#8217;s pretty much just misty on the maid of the mist. i think it&#8217;s a factor of the wind, and it was a pretty calm day. despite not getting drenched, it was a great day trip.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 622px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a title=\"Niagara Falls by jon|k, on Flickr\"
