FAMILY VACATION ’07!!!!!!!!!

Uh..yes its is good to be back home in the old Nebraska state. This week family vacation took us a week and it was a time well spend. So the first couple of days we spend driving across the U.S. (so much fun) NOT! lol Our first stop was at “Badlands”. Badland is just a place near South Dakota where nothing grows at all (hence the name Badlands althpough much of its history was under the sea). Next day we went to Mout Rushmore. It is a area in South Dakota where a magnificent structure of the 4 U.S. presidents heads is carved back in 1944. After that we stayed at a really nice hotel for a day and then continued our trip to Yellowstone park (the first national park ever built in America) There was jsut soooo much to see (so to put a long stroy short just look at the PHOTOs) lol As we browsed through and travels through the 5 differnt areas of Yellowstone park I couldn’t help to be awed by the beauty of mother nature. The most interseting part was seeing the “Geysers” Only a handful of countries has them and the U.S. is one of them. Now these Geysers spite out Silicon Oxide and they smell really horribly because of the minerals inside calle Sulfide. >__< I seriously had to run for cover. lol Oh my favorite one was “Old Faithful” it is the largest Geyser in the world. At the end of each day we stayed at a camping site pretty awesome got to get away out of hte old city life. Sadly after three days we left. On to Teton National Park!!! So yeah we stayed in Yellowstone for 3 days the next day we packed our bags and went to Teton. And its sites is sooooo beuitiful (as seen on photos) lol They got this amazing view of this beach area me and my family went on 3 picnic trips beside that lake. Did i mention we also got to see Bisons and a BEAR!! O__O well we did!!! I also tried a dip in the cold waters and felt really nice because it was all hot that day. Oh and also learned to skip rocks. lol (soooo much fun indeed!) But alas all good thigns must come to an end. It was very sad to leave Teton but we had to cuzof my dads excitment on seeing this friend of his in Idaho. =P So yeah then we drove like forever until we arrived at a quiet town in Idaho. Okay this friensd house was like a gigantic mansion okay? becaue his wife is an art student his hous is covered with her beautiful art work. and yeah it looks like a house for a king and queen. We slept over at their house for a day and we then left to Denver, Colorado, to see another friend after that we drove back which was today….^___^; *phew* OVeral the trip was AMAZING. It got alot of stress and anger and all the negative emotions and blown them away and let me see that there are so much more to life then we some times take for granted. I will never look at life the same anymore. And i really hope i go visit there again someday…
