Default Niagara Cruise Pics and Vids

Had a great time on the cruise. Here are my pics plus the Welland Tunnel video.

Thanks Mark for leading the way. And now, on with the pics.

A meeting of the minds. Getting ready to leave for our cruise, just waiting for some late comers.



Cars lined up nice and neat.








This reminds me of the scene in the King of the Hill cartoon when Hank and the boys are standing around drinking their beers.


And of course, Jack has to be special and park the wrong way.




2 Almost identical 2005 Triple Black Convertibles. Mine and Arnies.




The Corvette Queens.




Jack and Richard. The red shirt guys. Probably don't want to stand around them during a Star Trek Marathon.


Torch Red Grand Sport. Colour really jumps out in the bright sun.


Even Chris made the run with us today.


Chris and Vicky's dad Carlo sporting the same Corvette tee.


Cool Toyota MR2. Jacks contemplating a different direction.


Rocco's GTR.


Blair was late and had to park away from the rest of us. Still part of the crowd.


Paul's C2 and the rest of us standing about.


Came across this pristine 1919 Model T Roadster at the Centennial Parkway Timmies. Wow was it a looker.


Hand crank. Started on the first pull.




The Welland Tunnel from the rear.


The Welland Tunnel from the front. Play the first video for 3 seconds then press play on the 2nd video to get the cars coming and going.


The group at "Mike&Angelos" restaurant.


That's Randy mugging for the camera, Corrado just smilin, Rocco's thinking, WTF and Chris was deep in conversation about the Jays.


Paul's checking out his lunch, Rocco is taking a nap and Corrado giving me that come hither look.


Something's missing....

Thanks for posting up Stan.
The tunnel vid is great.
Believe it or not, coming up on 14 years of ownership, this is the first time I've heard and watched it go by.

Great inspiration for a few more vids!

Some screenshots at the restaurant. It's not just about the cars, but the friends we've made along the way.

The screen caps and videos are awesome. Thanks for sharing - was it a fish-eye lens of some kind? Very cool!

GoProHero3 set to record 1080p 30fps wide angle, which gives it the fish bowl effect. Stills extracted at 1920x1080 and then resized down to 1024x768.

I've got approximately 5 hours of video from both my front and rear facing cameras. That equates to 9000 stills/camera. Hard to choose just a few. Still going thru them to get the other cars on the cruise.

Default I have to ask myself...

Was it worth missing that fandamntastic cruise for Church and an afternoon with Nanette?


No.
