The Niagara Falls tour group crowded into the large elevator, and as the elevator doors closed, I turned to the group and introduced myself. "Hi, I'm Ellie, your guide. Generally we sing a song going down. What would you like to sing?"

A gentleman suggested a familiar song, and the entire group was soon belting it out.

The doors opened and I stepped out leading the group. In moments I turned and smiled at the sightseers. "People, I'm not really your tour guide, but have a great day!"

There followed three seconds of silence, then laughter and light applause. With the ice broken and a shared sense of adventure, we went to see the Falls.
