Back from Newyork
This being my first post in my blog I want to keep it short and sweet. I am back from a vacation today. Its has been a great week.
I have been to the magnificient Niagara falls situated right in between U.S and Canada. The bridge connecting U.S and Canada across the Niagara river is called the Rainbow Bridge. I am lucky to be back at U.T as we lost way and crossed the bridge by mistake. We had to go through rigorous customs check both by Canandian and American officers before coming back to U.S. We were warned to take passports even when going to a grocery store in U.S. Isn't it ridiculous!!!!!!!!
Anyways we enjoyed a lot in the maid of the mist ride (boat ride which takes people close to the falls) and then the fireworks of Canadian independence on July 1st. The next day we went to the cave of the winds walk where we walked to the falls and were hit hard on our faces by the water from the falls.
I then went to MIT in cambridge. It was great to be there and the view of boston downtown form there was awesome with the river in between. I then took the subway (its called the T locally) to Harvard, the land of the eilte. It was great to be there.
Then I travelled to NYC (Newyork city). I lost my breath for a second when I saw the skyline. I first went to the Times Square, the worlds top most, to be place and was mesmerised at the huge T.V screens and the glowing lights. I then took the NYC tour by the bus. It took us close to the empire state building and over the Manhattan bridge. The view of Newyork skyline on the one side and the statue of liberty on the other was beautiful. The bus tour was a disaster for me as I missed the 4th of july fireworks.
The next day I agian went to Time Square and visited the United Nations building.
