While many people see the Erie Canal from a distance, getting a closer look will reveal how this body of water works to further the area's economy. The canal is actually quite interesting, and you can learn more about it when you take the Lockport Locks and Erie Canal Cruise. Your tour guide will be quite informative from start to finish, describing how Lockport is known for the area's water "locks" that run approximately 50 feet. When you cruise through the canal on this tour, you'll actually go through the "locks" and see for yourself how these locks are used to move traffic along the river and its uniquely elevated terrain. It's a great tour for the whole family.

Whether you want to take to the water in your own vessel or just jump right in, Buffalo offers two prime locations for your aquatic recreation endeavors. Buffalo has the geographic advantage of being located near two of the Great Lakes—Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Such close proximity offers excellent opportunities for watersports when the weather is warm. The kids will love swimming, and dad will equally enjoy taking the boat out for a fishing excursion a little further out from the shore.

Sometimes, planning a romantic evening together can be a bit of a challenge. But instead of opting for the usual movie or club, make plans to see some truly unforgettable drama as it unfolds on the stage of Kavinoky Theatre. This fully restored 1908 Victorian playhouse is the perfect place to revisit various classic plays, or maybe see the flowering of the talents of some up-and-coming actors. Either way, you and your sweetheart will not only enjoy what's happening on stage, but also the venue's regal ambiance and vintage feel are fitting backdrops for your special romantic date together.
