Niagara Fall....The Seven Wonders




Wow!!! I finally I visited Niagara Fall, one of the seven wonders in the world!!!!!
This is a destination, which you should not miss in your life time. As I was in Ithaca for my summer course, being Kiasu I took the opportunity to visit it. All this happen within 45 mins during my afternoon break. Just imagine within the 45 mins, you have to form the group, hire a car and even arrange for the accommodations.

After all the drama, I finally managed to proceed with the trip. Now I being the so called "Leader", need to drive for 6 hours just to get there!!! This is just the beginning and the nightmare started!!!!

Being a hero to drive in the state without a International Driving Licence and do not know the way, we finally ended up in the Niagara after driving for 8 hours. Guess what, after all these long hours, now we do not have a place to stay. All the Hotel and Motel are fully booked. Again, after driving around the town for an hour, finally we got a room!!!! But, just one room and there are 4 of us!!!! The so called room cost us USD350 for a night!!!! It's Crazy!!!! As the night is getting late left us with no choice to take it and sleep like the Sardine Fish in the can!!!! Mind you, there are 2 guys and 2 girls, totally stranger who just get to know each other for 6 days.

After all these drama, next day morning we woke up at 7.30am and head straight to Niagara Fall. Oh my god!!!! As mentioned it's the National Day for Canada, you should see the amount of people and que. We waited 3 hours under the hot sun, finally "Niagara Fall" here we come.

Even with all the drama, stress you go through, I must says it is still worth it!!! Just sad that the ride was only for 30 mins!!!!
As mentioned it is a place that you should visit in a life time!!!! NO REGRET!!!!!!!
