2023 Trip to Algonac & Niagara Falls
Thursday, September 12, 2024, Riverside Park Motel & Campground, Niagara Falls, Canada, Day 2 - 0 Miles, 591 Miles for the trip.
While warmer, it still cooled down to 55°F last night. At least the electricity stayed on.
A quiet day. I did my mile walk heading south on the Niagara River Parkway walkway that parallels the road. After breakfast I read blogs & forums & enjoyed my morning coffee. After that it was sitting outside under the Guido's awning. Took a little break from sitting to have a pork loin sandwich using leftovers from yesterday's dinner. It got up to 82°F so the shade was welcome. Around 4:00 a cool(er) breeze started but it was still warm enough that I am tempted to fire up the AC before going to bed. It is still 81°F in the trailer.
I did a walk around the campground with the camera. Mostly Escapes & Bigfoots. Lorraine says she gets her best afternoon naps in the truck:
The AT&T cell service here is interesting, at least for the internet. I did a speed test using Safari & Speakeasy, my usual app for testing internet speed. 45Mbps down & 12Mbps up. When on a website owned by RV Life (such as the Escape forum of Fiberglass RV forum) they ask you to do a speed test, the results of which are posted in their reviews of campgrounds. The RV Life speed test showed .56Mbps up & 0Mbps down, both of which are wrong. On top of that, using my iPhone 13 and a speed test not using WiFi but directly connected to AT&T, I got 450Mbps down & 25Mbps up. My AT&T cell router is old and an older SIM card so I'm sure it is missing some frequencies that the cell phone covers, but that sure indicates that I should upgrade the modem.
Dinner was Chicken Marsala with Oreo cookies for dessert.
Until Tomorrow -
