We spent yesterday in Ithaca, a wonderful town at the south end of Lake Cayuga, the longest of the Finger Lakes. Ithaca is the home of Cornell University, an Ivy League campus with an excellent reputation and about 25,000 students. The town and campus not only have amazing architectural wonders, but Ithaca is also bisected by a number of deep gorges that contain spectacular waterfalls. We saw two of the falls (Buttermilk and Ithaca), had lunch at the town commons, hiked on the trail at the ornithology lab, and drove around the campus.
Unfortunately the paleontology center museum was closed. Who closes a museum on Tuesdays and Wednesdays? I’ll have to go back.
