Day 13


Basically, everyone is going to sleep, so I'll make the day's events brief. This morning was not hectic at all, even with only one bathroom. In fact, we had an extra hour before the van picked us up to take us to the cave. So, my dad and I took a walk around town. When we got to the cave, the entrance is this square yard fenced in staircase. This cave was much more climbing through passageways and over rocks than Jewel Cave. It was fun. After eating lunch at Flatbread Community Oven (which was awesome!), Uncle Joe, Aunt Linda, Uncle "Frank", my mom, sister, 2 cousins, and I walked around downtown. I was pretty exhausted by the time I got back to the house, and took a nap. Later we decided to go to this observatory near by, but we didn't have any directions! When we finally got there, it was pretty awesome. There was a bunch of telescopes trained on different cosmic objects. To point out constellations, they had this very powerful laser pointer, and it was really cool. Now I am going to get some rest for tomorrow's white water raft trip.

Blogger lady......Since you don't have a stuffed animal to take along to represent your aunt "penelope", use any object and let me know where I am in the photo. I wanna play too!!! Maybe you can start the "where in the photo is my aunt penelope"......Have a safe trip. Signed.....poor, poor, pouty Penelope
