My journey started with an arranged interview with the mysterious Mr. Kato.  It was at my lady friend Crystal's flat in the village that I first met Mr. Kato.  I tried to get a good look at his face but the shadows seemed to follow him.  A shiver ran up my spine as he slowly exhaled cigarette smoke through his nostriles and spoke for the first time. "So you wish to see Niagara Falls, do you? Taaah! Many have tried and most succeed but few are ever the same my friend. Why do you wish to take such chances?"  
I replied nervously "I, I have my reasons Mr. Kato.  But they are my reasons.  Will you help me?"
Mr. Kato began to weaze convulsively in a what I soon discovered to be a sick substitute for laughter.  "Very well, have it your way.  I will make all the necessary arrangements.  You will be given passage aboard the "Maid of the Mist " a tiny little garbage scowl that has made the trip once or twice before.  Fortune favors fools and foofolliers Mr. ---, which one do you think you are?"
