Fly Fishing August 14, 2022

 A day at the river, could have done without the rain but it was still nice. Grace was able to get in some fly fishing, Glen had fun with the tiny frogs.

 Out west day 11: home

The two good things about waking up at 3am.
1. I can get a good picture of my family walking through the beautiful halls of the Paris hotel without tons and tons of people around.
2. We get home by 8 pm.
We are home! It was a great trip, but it feels so good to be home.

 Out west day 10: Las Vegas

We wanted to make sure that we could make our very early flight tomorrow, so we got a room.
Today we went to the viewing bridge of the Hoover dam. We did not actually tour the dam, but seeing it from the bridge was still very amazing.
Once we got to our hotel, we then went to the Bellagio to see the fountain show. It was beautiful!

 Out west day 9: Zion National Park

Today we had a slow, relaxed morning. Then we took the shuttle bus from our hotel to the river walk hike. We hiked a bit, then we would find a sandy beach area to relax and play, hike a bit more, then find another beach area…over and over and over.
It was shady, and a great day to hike along the river. Then on our way back we got off at each of the shuttle stops, just to see what was at each point of the park. At the lodge area we found a large tree where we laid in the grassy shade, and I even fell asleep.
Back to the hotel to eat some bumble berry treat (since we are staying at the bumbleberry inn, we thought it was appropriate), and time at the pool. A relaxing end to a relaxing day!
