Simon Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 I suppose smoking grass by the railroad tracks is out... 389168[/snapback] Yeah, trains are very dangerous......
bluenews Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Buffalo Museum of Science then straight to hOOTers for some wings!!!
The Warden Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Other than the zoo, what is there to do in Buffalo with a 7 yr old and a 4 yr old? 389157[/snapback] If you feel like crossong the border - Marineland is pretty cool If you don't and want some amusement time - Fantasy Island on G.I. is low key for small kids - kinda similar to Seabreeze The Miss Buffalo boat tour is also informative and cool enough for kids. Then - Putt-Putt on Sheridan Drive in Tonawanda with a visit to Ted's right down the street - there are some things better than garbage plates !

EndZoneCrew Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 If you are in the falls....I HIGHLY recommend THIS!!!!
IDBillzFan Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 I suppose smoking grass by the railroad tracks is out... 389168[/snapback] Funniest thing I've ever read from you, hands down.
Fan in San Diego Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 The gorge farther down from the Falls on the Canadian side has some great walking trails and the kids will find it amazing. It is like walking into a another world. I always remember that place as a kid and always return there on visits for hikes again and again.
Fan in San Diego Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 The Old Fort Erie is always good for an afternoon outing. The kids will like it as well !
Guffalo Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Niagara Falls area, Devils Hole, or Whirlpool State park, access to the gorge (long walk down the stone carved stairs) as mentoned before. The Naval Museum right behind the Aud, I forget the names of the boats, but tour the ships. Bisons Baseball game, very kid freindly.

BuffaloDynamite Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Take a trip to Travis Henry's house before he leaves- he loves the youngsters

Bisons Baseball game, very kid freindly. 389317[/snapback] If you go to the Naval Park, take a walk through the Erie Basin Marina(it's right next door) before or after. The kids will love walking on the rocks and climbing up the tower at the end of the marina. Grab an ice cream for the kids and a cold beer for dad and you'll be all set.
LabattBlue Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Depending on when you will be in Buffalo, you could take in the Erie County Fair. If you can keep the kids out of the midway, there are plenty of things to see and do for free with the gate admission. http://www.americas-fair.com/

Hysterical ! Although wouldn't that piss off all of the wives and girlfriends ? Unless... ? The joke possiblities are endless !
stuckincincy Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Other than the zoo, what is there to do in Buffalo with a 7 yr old and a 4 yr old? 389157[/snapback] Are they visitors?
The Warden Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Actually we'll be in Niagara Falls for one day/night, then another day/night in Buffalo. 389226[/snapback] The Maid of the Mist is a definite must for kids (and big kids) - You can do it from the American side http://www.maidofthemist.com/
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted July 26, 2005 Author Posted July 26, 2005 Are they visitors? 389543[/snapback] Well we live in Rochester so it's kind of a mini-vacation. It's been so long since I've lived in Buffalo (29 years) that I don't really know this stuff any more. My sister-in-law and her husband & 9 month old will be visiting. Her husband has never been to the falls.
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 If you are in the falls....I HIGHLY recommend THIS!!!! 389230[/snapback] Wow! I bet that makes the USCG and CCG cringe?
