At the end of April we finally made our first trip to Yosemite National Park! And it was SO AMAZING!! It was unlike any place we have ever been, including the Grand Tetons! We camped in one of their little canvas tent/cabins and went biking and hiking all over the Yosemite Valley for a couple of days. Other than freezing our buns off at night and having to be really careful about keeping all food locked in a BEAR locker, we loved every second of it and can't wait to go back! We seriously encourage anyone who has the chance to go to Yosemite to take advantage of it b/c it is definitely worth it!
Something else fun that we did this past weekend was go to "The Mystery Spot" in Santa Cruz. I don't know if you have ever heard of this place but it's a crazy place in the Santa Cruz mountains where the gravity is all weird and messed up and no one knows why... hence the name. It was a lot of fun to take a tour through an old cabin that was built in the 1920's that is permanently slanted at a crazy angle which makes you look and feel like you're going to fall over but you don't! It's so WEIRD and difficult to explain. Check out the pictures and you'll see what I mean...
Don't mind the "closed" sign behind Micah, we took this pic on our way out.
Here we are in the cabin and I promise I'm not holding on to the rail! I'm seriously leaning over that far and yet not falling over! It was the craziest thing!
OK, his feet seriously are not touching the ground! The pic sort of makes it look that way but he was completely hanging! No Joke!
So I am standing on a table in this "mysterious" cabin... now shouldn't I have fallen on my face?! Well, I didn't! We couldn't figure it out and it's seriously not an optical illusion either! Gravity is completely weird there but it was a fun experience! Once again, you should go if you're ever in the area!
Well, we're enjoying the spring but also looking forward to a busy summer of school and family vacations so I'll really try to keep this blog updated! Happy Spring Everyone!!
