I’m sad to go but the last place we went to before leaving Utah was Bryce Canyon, National Park. Think grand canyon but smaller. It was still really cool walking around the bottom of the canyon even if the hike was four hours in the brutal sun.

Got to milk some cows today at a cool farm near the house we are staying at. The best part was that we got to drink the milk that we had gotten from the cow and got to keep a carton of it. Let me tell you we made the best milkshakes known to man […]

Next, we went to Zion National Park and did a hike through the narrows. The narrows are basically really thin canyons so when you walk through there are steep rock walls going up probably 200 hundred feet and a lot of its filled with water. The only way to the other side is through! There […]

Took a quick trip to Lake Powell in Utah. It is a water reservoir so the water is fresh water and very clear. With the tan sloped sides and the way the sun reflected off of it, it gave a really cool green glow. We rented a houseboat which was definitely the way to go, […]

Took a quick trip up to Ginnie Springs with the cousins. Ginnie Springs is a spring between Boca and Gainsville that has perfectly clear water that you can swim in. There is a campground around the spring and there is also a river that you can float down that is fed by the spring. Right […]

To finish off our grand tour of the Mediterranean we headed to Instanbul, Turkey. We started by touring the giant underground aqueduct and water reservoir system that has to help up for centuries. It is still in use today and stores all the water for Istanbul. Next, we went to a few mosques most notably […]

With one more day in Greece, we headed to Mikinos which is an island in Greece that has the iconic blue and white buildings that you see on the internet. Surprisingly we found an Airbnb to stay in and it was right on the beach. There was one catch though, the beach, was a nude […]

After mount olympus, we headed to a small town that was pretty unassuming until you looked up. You could see giant buildings perched atop these vertical hills or mountains. The only way up was a steep hike around the side of the mountain. These giant buildings were actually ancient monasteries where monks lived. You already […]

I have been pretty obsessed with the Percy Jackson books lately which take place in a fictional Greek Mythological world. Of course, everyone knows that the entrance to Olympus where the gods sit is at mount Olympus. So I was beyond excited when I found out we were right next to mount Olympus and told […]
