Mini Vacay: Bear Lake, Lake Powell and Yellowstone in 4 Days

Yes it was exhausting and lots of driving, but we had fun nevertheless. My friend came to visit who is originally from Morocco but lives in Dallas. He is into hiking and nature-ish stuff, and wanted to see everything he didn't see the first time he was here. So we did our best to cover the list. Bear Lake and Minnetonka Cave on Saturday, Lake Powell on Sunday and Monday and Yellowstone on Tuesday and Wednesday. I know! It was a whirlwind!


We tried to put Andrew's three summers of swimming lessons to use in Lake Powell to no avail. He sinks like a rock and has absolutely no interest in changing that. Glad my money was well invested. Sigh...lol.

My sister and cute niece joined us for our Yellowstone adventure and we saw Old Faithful, paint pots and then some parts of the park Hillary and I had never been in all our times there so that was nice. Andrew had a great time and is such a good traveler-he really seems to enjoy just looking out the window (and sucking his thumb of course-grrrr!). It is nice to be home but I am glad we went. Now I need to rest and recover from my vacation.
