niagara falls

niagara falls must be one of the most photographed objects in the world and we too couldn't resist even so it meant our cameras drowned in the thick mist that covers every millimeter of air.

torn between the trip on the "maid of the mist" and the cave walk we decided on the latter as it allowed us to stand for as long under the falls as we wanted (kind of). truly spectacular and for america relatively unsecured walkways lead you right into and under the thundering downpour, with the water gushing around us, over our heads, feet, anything.
god knows why we even tried to stay dry in the hideous yellow plastic sacks they give out as they only look silly, make you sweat inside and give a real laugh to your neighbours.

but an experience of a lifetime and worth every wrecked camera, phone, handbag in the world.
