![]() In our never-ending search throughout the Niagara Peninsula to find interesting taste experiences for you, we visited the Pho18 Vietnamese restaurant in Thorold last week. We had a very tasty lunch - a traditional Pho Noodle Soup with chicken and beef, and a Pork and Shrimp Clay Pot with steamed rice. Both were absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced. We have decided this time that we would leave you to choose your own dishes from the very extensive menu; this way you can spend as little or as much as you want. All you have to do is email Neil McGregor before March 18 if you plan on joining us: namcg26@gmail.com Click the link below to see the Restaurant Facebook page with menu. Scroll down to find the menu: https://www.facebook.com/pho18fusion/ The location of the restaurant is located here
The title, "Rescues from the Falls," doesn't tell the whole story. Yes, there are some heroic rescue stories, but they're in the minority. The hard fact is that many people, bent on ending their own lives, choose to do so by plunging over Niagara Falls. In his talk to NCRA, Shawn will be shedding light on this dark side.
There's a revealing quote from renowned author, Yuval Noah Harrari, that helps put things in perspective: "For the first time in history more people commit suicide than are killed by crime, terrorism and war combined." The Niagara Parks Police High Angle Rescue Team spend a lot of time and money on the recovery of bodies, often at great risk to their staff. For this reason, I have been asked to ensure that the message being delivered to our attendees not be heard by casual guests at the luncheon. We are requesting an area away from the madding crowd. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
