Maid of the Mist

Have you ever seen heaven in your dreams, ever wondered about the geography of heaven? If yes, is heaven according to you a place above the clouds, where things are pleasant, beautiful, peaceful, where people have only smiles on their faces? If that is how the real heaven looks like, then if anyone questions me if you have seen heaven, then I will boldly answer 'YES' I have been to heaven, in a 30 min 'MAID OF THE MIST' trip in Niagara. Standing before the horseshoe falls, experiencing the mist from the falls, all that you will see is the bubbles in the water, Mighty Falls, the clear green water, and the Rainbow in the Mist. At that very moment, I fell in love with my life, making me so lucky to be there and experience the mystery. 

 Niagara fall is not formed by a river, it is actually a part of two great lakes Lake Ontario and Lake Rye. Like any historic place Niagara has a tribal story for itself, the story of Lelawala, a tribal girl from Niagara, who was married to an old scholar in the tribe, listened to her heart that said, her destiny is not being married to the old man followed to the Niagara and sacrificed her life to the love for the 'Thunder God' who lived behind the Niagara falls. It is being believed that Lelawala still lives in the Rainbow formed in the mist of the Niagara Falls. 

 

The story of Lelawala and her sacrifice for Love is not the first of its kind we are hearing, but Niagara is definitely the one of a kind place, where I started believing that 'Love at first sight' is in fact possible.
