Niagara Falls

We travelled a whole day from New Jersey to Buffalo in New York State just to capture the view of the spectacular Niagara Falls and it's so worth it because the waterfalls is just so amazing!

On our way to Niagara Falls we passed by She-Qua-Ga...not as breathtaking as Niagara but still pretty famous in its own right.
Finally, after almost 10hours on the roads, we saw the Niagara River. That means Niagara falls is just nearby!
Althought Spring had arrived...the water was still icy cold!
We knew its the Niagara Falls when we saw the cloud of mist produced by it!
Horseshoe falls (the waterfalls on the canadian side)
the American falls at sunsetit looks so pretty with the glow of sunlight!
see the bridge behind? it's called the Rainbow Bridge and soon, we would be crossing over it to Ontario, Canada!

our hotel was just a few minutes walk away from the waterfalls so we decided to take a stroll out in the cold cold night to watch the illuminated falls :)
rainbow bridge at night
rainbow colours...PRETTY!
the waterfalls in the picture that is closer to us is the American falls while the horseshoe falls is the one further away. The 2 waterfalls are separated by Goat's Island, which you cant really see in the picture because it's dark, but you know it's the gap between the two waterfalls.
we went back to see the waterfalls again the next morning
It was a pity that Maid of the Mist only starts its operation in May so we didnt get to take the boat ride to see the waterfalls up close :( Instead we went to the tunnel behind the falls but it was a disappointment too because you cant really see much with the heavy mist and the balcony was closed due to safety concerns (there were still ice on the balcony floor so it was pretty dangerous).

rainbow!
Goodbye waterfalls! It's time to travel another 400 over miles back to New york city!
