Day 2: Shipshewana - Niagara Falls
Awoke to the most beautiful view of Amish countryside and typical American barns.
Went to the Menno-Hoff -an Amish, Mennonite, Hudderite history - such a nice life they lead these days, shame I can never become Amish (i'd need to believe in god, for starters!).
Went to shops, found presents for one of the kids and jordan. After an amazing drive through some Amish communities, we drive into Ohio.
Ohio appears to be the land of absolute nothingness. Toledo was pretty un-interesting, and Cleveland even less so. Just a pretty shoreline onto lake Eire, with a bunch of nice houses.
so, straight out of Ohio and into Pennsylvania.
Then long drive to Niagara Falls.
We pre-booked a room at the Marriott in Niagara Falls, and arrived at about 2200 Local time. The town looked like it was bustling with tourist kitcheyness, so decided to go and explore some. A few drinks in a bar with very good live music, and back to the hotel at 0045 with alarm set for 0930 rise!
Perhaps someone could tell Boris to ask the Canadians for our routemasters back. This photo was taken this evening here in Niagara Falls. Thieving bastards!!
Tomorrow's plan: Head in the general direction on Maine!
