This last weekend me and my family ( mom, dad, me, and lars) went to moab and mese verde. In moab we swam and ate good food haha but mainley we went to arches national park. It was so amazingly beautiful!! We hiked up the first day and saw landscape arch which is the longest arch in the world! It was really cool. We also went to the sand dune arch that day. We went river rafting while we were there and to tell ya the truth i was terrified!! when we went to go sign up for our next day adventure, and i was begging to do something different. I just did not want to fall out or get stuck i was just so worried haha but anyway they didnt give into my pleading and signed that papers anyway. i was scared all night long, but it came the day and we were at the place riding on the bus to wear we would head down the river. So we had a girl and that made me worry even more and by the way things were going i new this was not going to be a fun river trip. so of course we are coming on to the biggest rapids i have ever seen and i fall out cause she had no idea what she was doing!!! i was terrified and my whole family was trying to pull me out of the river before i died. finally i got back in the raft and i was soaked! i had lost my shoes so the whole day when after when we were on the hot rocks and sand my feet were on fire haha lets just say i dont think i am ever going to go rafting again. Anyway after that we were headed strait down to mese verde and for those who dont no what that is, its where all of the indian ruins are. We staying up there and the next day we took some tours and just explored ourselves where the indians lived. It was so amazing to see what they had to do and where they sleeping and everything and man i am so glad that we have costco these days!!! Then we headed back down to moab where that night we hiked up to the delicate arch. It was about a 2 and a 1/2 hour hike and man it was steep and hot but well worth it! Finally we got up to the arch and it was so pretty! it was just as the sun was setting so the lighting was perfect, and the tempuratures had just gone down. we hiked back down and it was a great ending to the trip. I had a fun time and here are some pictures of the trip.
