You can walk across the Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls. It's a tourist area ... no trucks. The Peace Bridge is in Buffalo ... it's a commercial crossing, lots of trucks.

I don't know how a pedestrian would clear Canadian customs, though. It would seem odd he didn't have a car parked someplace, wouldn't it?

I guess it may raise some eyebrows. I crossed over at Niagara. We got asked nothing....I mean nothing when we entered into the Canadian side. She looked at my id, my friends id and said have a good day....that was it. We got grilled supremely when we walked back over to the American side. It was my most fearful border crossing that's for sure. But thats a whole other story. On the American side they did ask why we walked over etc and where our car was. It was parked on the American side in their parking area.

When I travel from the Buffalo airport myself I guess I travel via the Peace Bridge (I can never keep the bridge names straight!). I was sure I couldn't remember a sidewalk.

Silly girlfriend..You cross at Queenston-Lewiston bridge... ;)

I would think his bigger problem would be getting on the plane in Ga. The first thing Homeland security looks for is one way tickets.

good point...never thought of that. I dunno if you get something that would be suitable after the visa approval but perhaps you can fax something to your SO that might prove just that Leafgal. Then he can have that when he clears security etc that may ask him about the one-way ticket.

It has been done before. I'm sure. :thumbs:

I'm sure that'll be fine. We have all discussed the need for honesty on this board a million times. He will be honest and provide the info that he can. Sheesh! Ya can't be the first. It will all go fine.
