Majestic Niagara Falls & Maryland

Early in the morning we headed to the Niagara Falls. I guess no words can truly do justice to the scenic beauty of the magnificent waterfall.  The sheer size and sound of the waterfall is amazing.The rainbow across the waterfall just added more beauty to our pictures.The word Niagara originates from the Indian word “Ongniaahra" meaning "Thunder of Waters". Unfortunately the Maid of Mist was not operational during that time so after clicking pictures from different view point we saw a documentary on Niagara and then left for the Corning Glass factory.


Although we had seen Morano Borano glass factory in Italy, it was nice to see the demonstration again especially for the kids. You can also make your own glass in a 40 min class however we couldn't do that due to time constraint. The museum has a beautiful modern as well as ancient display of art collection. After travelling the whole day we took refuge in Gaithersburg, Maryland where we rested for the night. This was the end of day 2 tour.
