Welcome, Today we left DD’s house and went back to Nana and Papas House for the next few nights. I was assigned the position of blogger today so I’m going to recap my top 5 favorite places from our trip with some pics I took.


Lava Tubes

The lava tubes were incredible! We had to ride down a small dirt road for miles to find a small road to turn down to an even smaller road into a more open dirt lot. We parked and walked threw some trees to find a small opening facing straight down into a dark hole and we got to explore the cave on our own and I had a great time.(Below are some pictures of what i could see in the cave)


















Monument
Park

We drove through miles of flat desert to eventually find monument park. Monument park has tall towering arches and rock formations out in the middle of this vast desert. It was cool because we got to stop and climb up the rocks and explore.
















St Louis

In St. Louis we got to see the gateway arch in pictures and videos it appears to be a thin building but is surprisingly large. We went up a elevator like thing that went up the side of the building to an airplane like room at the top with small slit windows that u can look out of. It was incredible.



























NYC
I loved our trip to New York City. We got to go up to the top of the Empire State Building and we also got to walk around the many streets of Times Square. New York is trying a new traffic technique so is closing certain roads for a few months. On these roads they put outdoor carpet and lawn chairs. So people can lay back in a chair in the middle of the streets of NYC.














Boston

Our trip to Boston was cool. We got to see the part where the Boston Massacre happened and we got to see Quincy Market, Fenway Park and walk around and see the Dunkin Donuts on every corner.



I’d like to make a shout out to my San Diego friends that I’ll be back in a week and there’s no place like home. P.S MOSQUITOS SUCK (literally haha)
