Have you ever imagined an adventure of a lifetime during which two car tires, plus the spare one, unexpectedly trick you with? Halfway to your destination route to Niagara Falls, in a specific remote area? Well yes, it is possible! The 6-hour journey from Becket, MA to State Park Niagara Falls was in itself a frightening journey that we forgot about our destination place that is a wonder of America. Americans are people full of smiles and kindness to newcomers from Europe; the smile never left their faces as they listened in disbelief to our "tragic" stories. First of all, they always tried to help at all costs. From a mechanic who repaired our vehicle after hours of work, to people stopping after a tire shot on the road. However, the village, whose name we can not even find on the map and people living there, should turn into gold, thanks to what they did for us. Middle of the night, one gas station, one house and another tire shot (we also didn't believe we were unlucky). The house we knocked on was the last resort. The woman who opened the door looked after us selflessly. Inserting posts, calling friends saying that young polish students need a tire. We were surprised that we were taken to a camping run by her family and friends. The daughter gave us her trailer, and with her the bed, cosmetics and the whole fridge of food - knowing us 10 min. And you know what, in the morning they offered to take us to a tire store. Still surprised by such a good heart of these people and full of disbelief, taking a souvenir photo with the heroines of that night, we were given $ 100 for a great stay at Niagara. Everyone received only good words of thanks from us, thanks to which they were happy that they could give a part of themselves, giving joy to others.
