last time on sailing ships Egypt see we
travel through Ohio we're in Cleveland
and the cuyahoga valley national park we
shall kaze four of their most prominent
waterfalls and enjoy every minute of it
from there we have one of the most
craziest days on the water yet and make
it to Buffalo New York we enjoy it's
amazing food and beverage scene and make
a math track for our travels on the Erie
Canal with our math track completed we
decided to visit the Niagara Falls
[Music]
25 with their us
this place is magical and I couldn't
stop filming it's easy if you've never
been to Niagara Falls you need to check
them out it was my first time and I was
amazed by far the most beautiful
waterfalls I've ever seen
you
alongside seeing it from the main
sidewalk we decided to do a few
attractions to the first one was journey
behind the falls the views were mush
Monsieur under the falls and the poncho
it gave us an interesting perspective
and provided us history behind the falls
[Music]
another attraction we decided on was the
skylon tower at first I wasn't sure
about the height but once we were up on
the elevator the views were better than
ever
[Music]
[Music]
niagara falls on the canadian side is
very touristy
after a flight at Niagara brewing we
made our way to the American side of
niagara falls located on go island the
American time
[Music]
he would look more epic than ever over
here okay that was a fun experience but
we needed to get back on track it was
time to head to our co-ops and get our
mast secured for the Erie Canal we're
going to get our path taken down finally
we've ended up low for a week and now we
are finally getting business just a sail
down we dip it in the cover and take the
battens out and tape them on there we've
got a whole mass track built and play
this won't take too long these guys were
efficient and made us confident with
everything being secured before leaving
their neck from there we didn't waste
any time and started with our first
locks here's an above shot of symmetric
with massive boom
we're just waiting for the first lock to
open looks like it's just about to
happen we are up against the wall which
we will be doing pretty much every night
for the next week we got by our path so
that we can do that and stay overnight
the dogs just found some friends owns
and kayaks in the distance and i'm going
to show you what they lack looks like
while its opening does it's just
starting to happen right now and i'm
going to have to do some work i'm
getting off of this shortly pretty cool
that's a big-ass ship
here it goes we're going through our
first lock
yeah Mary holding the line up here this
one's only only about five feet so it
shouldn't be too bad and hopefully you
guys are still with us when the lock is
finished because it's nice settled it
over here over there in the lockout are
there it is gave us some good tips so
hopefully all of the locks go this
smoothly we'll see if it goes smoothly
we made it through our first slot
completely fine but had a dark ride over
to tonawanda the next morning I was
excited to start river cruising our mast
is feeling the Thunder and being in
every photo shot now
we're going down the unique now it's
really beautiful is reasonably how the
whole Bay River is on a very very narrow
and its original surface all green right
now I'm going cool to come in the fall
and seeing all the changing colors but
pretty awesome this is how narrow it is
and again I'm asked us down so that we
can fit under all these tiny bridges and
go through the locks appropriately this
is day one and pretty well I've been
feeling this all day but very gave me a
break so I can film for a minute and get
a little bit more of a shot it's just
sad to be the zero but before there were
a lot of little cities and last time we
seen some ton of one dollar in qtown we
just stay long we just had the night
there and then woke up this morning very
early left my 8am those channels for the
canal is only open from pieces eyes so
we are doing a head start on today
starting at eight and hopefully you run
towards our goal
Santa hop out I'm filming him hello Matt
beautiful head Mary
piloting macnell very narrow look at how
beautiful this is
all right i am giving me another break
because our first of the day we're going
real slow we're basically an idol we did
reverse a little bit too just so that we
wouldn't get up to close to that for it
open apparently they're linking down the
waterline
learn the son of a lot the shower
however both that I was familiar way to
feel a little for we have loved sight of
the phone we slide our own line around
so that we don't actually have to touch
it too much though eyes be right here
and then we'll go down another 20 feet
in the next section
[Music]
alright we're tied up to our second
block of the day again we'll probably be
going around
a mass is always feeling the shot now
very foamy
there's a lot of line
in fact there's bear event holding the
stern line
as we sit lower another
go behind us I feel like a toy in a
bathtub and someone to pull the drain
what it feels like
those first couple of days in the canal
were awesome and river cruising is so
much fun although there would be many
more locks and less bridges to encounter
we were excited about the scenery and
the new towns to visit all right and I
waterfall absolutely stunning a lot more
than I expected in a really pretty Park
to me right now they're in summer TV
down knocking to follow me but I'm not
sure if you noticed a trend yet but I
like waterfalls I'll go out of my way
any day to see mother nature's beauty
