Spring Break Visit To New York State Buffalo Zoo

Zoo, most people think it is a boring activity; nevertheless, you get to see rare animals live instead of from televisions and computers. The Buffalo Zoo is located a distance away from my university, since we do not own a car we ride our way to there with public buses. What attract us the most was that there are polar bears in the zoo. The zoo is quite huge that we spent about 2 hours to finish the whole route under such a lovely sunny weather on that day.

Wait, where are the polar bears? What is that building on the first small photo? Well, we were disappointed that we could not see any polar bears in their compounds on our visit, nothing at all. Otherwise, it would be a wonderful visit. The elephants were kept in the building like the giraffes mainly due to the chilly weather or maybe some other reasons. Taking just the building because I did not manage to snap photos of them due to the glasses' reflection. Oh man!

The Seventh World Wonder - Niagara Falls

A day before I commenced my first semester in University at Buffalo, I visited the Niagara Falls with my Malaysia Student Association(MaSA) on Sunday. I was so amazed by the beauty of the nature created this wonderful falls which had become one of the world's wonder. The water flows were so strengthful and flow continuous from south to north direction. Because of the waterfalls, the air there was much fresher and humid than usual places away from Niagara Falls.

Merritt's BlogAlthough there lied tree trunks upon the rivers towards the falls, the water flows omnipotently.

Merritt's BlogThe omnipotent flow of water is unmeasurable and enormously beautiful.

The Niagara Falls State Park is quite a huge park to walk around to enjoy the beautiful sceneries of Niagara Falls. The Niagara Falls are categorised into three names, namely American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Canadian Falls. From the Niagara Falls State Park, you will be first visiting the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls then only Canadian Falls. On the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls side, there were a platform built for sightseeing specially on the falls. On the platform, you could see the falls much clearer and experience the strongest wind blowing.

Due to the large amount of the water droplets in the atmosphere around Niagara Falls that will reflect the light, my visit to the Niagara Falls was concluded with the appearance of the strongly visible rainbow. Anyhow, besides enjoying the view of the Niagara Falls, I was able to sightsee the city of Ontario in Canada and to observe something rare in the park comparing to Malaysia where squirrels running around and getting foods from people instead of monkeys climbing around snatching foods from people.
