We were not sure about taking the Highway,therefore we decided to head to Niagara through the back roads. Navigon tooks us there and it did a great job. We drove through the back road of Burlington, Hamilton and Niagara.<\/p>\n<p>We took a couple of breaks, one\u00a0around north Burlington on a Tim Horton\u2019s drive through and then we had lunch at \u2018Backety Back\u2019. We were starving, we had a veggie burger and pork Souvlaki.<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ride.ziaei.com\/ride\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_5806.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-205\" src=\"http:\/\/ride.ziaei.com\/ride\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_5806-300x400.jpg\" alt=\"Lunch break on Niagara before getting to border crossing\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ziaei.com\/ride\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_5806-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ziaei.com\/ride\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_5806-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ziaei.com\/ride\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_5806.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After lunch we headed to Buffalo, we had a bit of line up at the border crossing but nothing mayor.
