Happy Tourism
British author Fanny Trollope recalled a family time when she and her two daughters came to Niagara Falls during June of 1831. She wrote, "We drenched ourselves in spray; we cut our feet on the rocks; we blistered our faces in the sun; we looked up the cataract and down the cataract; we perched ourselves on every pinnacle we could find; we dipped our fingers in the flood at a few yards distance from its thundering fall; in short, we strove to fill as many niches of memory with Niagara as possible."
