Day 2 – June 13

We decided to visit Ninja Kidz Action Park, where Mila and Mason bounced, climbed, and burned off some energy. Mila is a huge Ninja Kidz fan, and both her and Mason have been listening to their music the entire trip—so this was a fun surprise.

Later, we headed down to the Las Vegas Strip. It was extremely hot—honestly, it almost felt like the pavement was on fire under our feet Thankfully, many of the hotels are connected, so we were able to cool off as we walked from one to another.

We wandered through the beautiful Caesars Palace, taking in all the amazing details before treating ourselves to dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. Let’s just say… we may have eaten a little too much. 😅

The perfect ending to the day was watching the famous Bellagio Fountains dance to the music. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, fireworks started lighting up the sky at the same time It was one of those unexpected moments that made the evening even more special.

Day 3 – June 10th

After two busy days of hiking, we decided to slow things down and enjoy our last day in Zion.

The morning started with the kids exploring around the campground, looking for animal tracks and seeing what wildlife they could find. Mason especially had one mission — trying to catch one of the many little lizards running around 🦎

In the afternoon, the kids rode their scooters to the Nature Center, where Mila and Mason joined a dinosaur Junior Ranger program and completed their activity books so they could earn another Junior Ranger badge. They were always so excited to add a new one to their collection.

The rest of the day we spent hanging out by the pool, enjoying the sunshine, and soaking in our final day before moving on to our next adventure.

We have to say, Zion National Park completely lived up to our expectations. From hiking through the Virgin River in The Narrows to watching Mila conquer Angels Landing, it was an unforgettable stop on our journey. It’s definitely a place we would want to visit again someday. ❤️

Page, AZ – Day 3: Lower Antelope Canyon & Horseshoe Bend

Today we took a tour of Lower Antelope Canyon, and it was such a great experience.

The canyon was absolutely beautiful. Walking through the narrow passageways and seeing all the colors and shapes in the sandstone was amazing. Everywhere you looked there was something beautiful to see.

Lower Antelope Canyon was formed over thousands of years by flash floods slowly carving through the sandstone. It is truly incredible to see in person.

After Antelope Canyon, we went to Horseshoe Bend. It was another beautiful stop and such an iconic view. Seeing the Colorado River curve around the massive rock formation was pretty incredible.

The walk to Horseshoe Bend was extremely hot, and it was also very windy. The wind blowing sand against your skin actually hurt, which made the walk a little rough.

The desert here is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. But the intense heat and all the sand constantly getting into the camper is definitely starting to get to us.

Day 2: A Day Trip to Kanab

Today we drove to Kanab to visit the Kanab Sand Caves and Moqui Cave.

The sand caves were such a fun stop. The hike to get there is short but a little steep and very hot, but the kids had a lot of fun playing in the sand, so it was definitely worth it. The caves are actually man-made and were created years ago when sandstone was mined there.

After that we visited Moqui Cave, which was interesting. It is a small cave museum with lots of rocks, fossils, and Native American artifacts. It was also once used as a speakeasy in the 1950s, which we thought was pretty cool.

Another fun day exploring the beautiful desert around Page.
