Kaadhal Niagara. (Love Niagara)

A day that started with anxiety, peaked into excitement and ended with satisfaction.

I was lucky enough to view the Niagara from the Canadian side, for I was told that the view from the US is not that great and it gives u only the rear view.

View of the Horseshoe falls and the American Falls from the Canadian Side, boat ride to the Maid of the Mist, Visit to the Guiness book of World records museum, Wax museum, Ripley's believe it or not-We made ourselves a tight schedule sothat we could enjoy each and every minute.

Before heading to the Maid of the Mist (where u are taken right to the middle of Horseshoe falls), we went for some shopping (Lemme rather call it ass sightseeing) in the shops surrounding the Niagara Area, grabbed some pizzas for lunch and then waited patiently for 1/2 hour in queue heading to see the beautiful maid.

The view of the falls from the Maid of the Mist was amazing. Believe me, you could feel the granduer of Niagara only if you see it right from the middle of the Horseshoe falls. What an view it was. You must see it to feel the experience.

Another major attraction at the Niagara is the Casino. We decided to try our luck at the Casino. But Alas!. The security at the entrance refused to accept our Indian Driving License as our proof of age. Simple reason being as per his records there are only 9 states in India and they are: Andaman and Nicobar (??), Mizoram, Manipur, Gujarat, Punjab, Delhi (hey!!!!), J&K, Goa and Rajasthan. And neither of us were from these states!!

After that futile attempt at the Casino, we decided to pack our bags back to Toronto after seeing the Niagara in the night. It was almost 10:30 when we left Niagara and we reached Toronto in flat 90 minutes. Distance: 117 miles!!.

Overall it was a memorable journey and I definitely enjoyed every bit of it.

I just had one wish that was not satisfied this time though- I wanted all my close friends back in India to accompany me to Niagara. Let me hope that wish gets fulfilled soon!!
