Today is August 1st and Cody has just turned 14 !! This morning we visited the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland which I thought was brilliant ! The building itself is extremely similar to the Louvre Pyramid in Paris only a lot bigger. It houses 4,000 or so exhibits - mostly costumes, guitars and documents from a real cross section of musicians from Hendrix to Led Zeppelin to the Temptations to Aerosmith to Michael Jackson (inc the red jacket he wore in the Thriller video) etc, etc...Cody seemed to enjoy himself - the only problem being that we spent a lot longer there than we expected.
As a result, we left late and didn't set off for Niagara until tea time. We caught our old friend, the Interstate 90, to Erie in Pennsylvania - the 10th state we have visited on our road trip so far - and eventually crossed the border into New York state....we're getting close to the east coast now....and we arrived in Lewiston - a small town approx 10 miles from Niagara Falls about 8:00pm. We went straight out for Cody's birthday dinner. We are staying at the Barton Hill Hotel which is on the bank of Lake Erie so we can literally see Canada from our hotel room !!On the drive to Niagara, the boys amused themselves in the usual way...
Canada - apparently
Cody thoroughly enjoyed his humungeous birthday dessert - maybe he could do this for a living - think of what it would save in college fees !!
