Photos from our day trip to Aurora, NY. Aurora is a very lovely, quiet and picturesque town located on the shores of Cayuga Lake. It is also the home of Wells College, a nationally recognized liberal arts college. It's definitely worth your time to stop by and check out the homes and shops if you're in the area as this town is a real gem.
