Hello
dears!
I
wanted to share a Sobolev family end-of-the-year adventure with you!
Back
in November, our family went on a majestic road trip to the Grand Canyon. It was such a beautiful and incredible trip… the great
expanse of the canyon really puts everything into perspective! The last time I
was there, Julian was 3 months old - that was 21 years ago! We drove through Laughlin
and stayed the night to break up a 7 hour drive. Laughlin was fun - it's like a
mini "Vegas" and the kids had a blast! The next day, we spent the
entire day at three amazing locations of the Canyon.
Stop
1 was "Eagle Point" - the Rock Formation at that part of Grand Canyon really looks like a huge eagle. It was just breathtaking! The views are simply indescribable! We were
all in AWE! The 2nd stop was the Sky Walk - it is
literally a semi-circle of a glass bridge that hangs off the cliff over the Grand Canyon!! Kind
of scary but so much fun. To go on it, you must leave all your
cameras/phones behind and put on slippers over your shoes, kind of like the
ones they wear in hospitals. Then, you step on this incredible glass bridge and
you look down and you see the Colorado river
and the bottom of the Canyon. It is really crazy!!! We
had our photos taken professionally there and they charge mucho $$ for those! Oh
well it's all in a day's fun! See the pic below…
Then
stop 3 was a huge red rock formation, where tons of large red boulders were
naturally created. We climbed all over them! :-)
The
last stop was The Ranch where we had a hearty home cooked meal of chicken, ribs,
corn on a cob and mashed potatoes! I kept telling myself that the diet awaits
starting tomorrow - ha! What a trip… our country has such incredible places to
visit. Sometimes I wonder why we all rush to Europe
when we have such incredible natural splendor in our own back-yard!
Enjoy!
Xo,
